Hilton Head Timeshares

Green is more than just a spot on the golf course in Hilton Head — it's a way of life.

Sure, this 12-mile long, shoe-shaped island off the southern coast of South Carolina attracts golfers from around the world to its 25 world-class courses. But Mother Nature is the true star here, thanks to Hilton Head's fierce commitment to the environment ever since the island was first developed in the 1950s. Beaches have been meticulously preserved and land has been carefully set aside for animal habitats, allowing visitors to get unusually close to flora and fauna.

Got your sea legs on? A cruise will bring you right alongside bottlenose dolphins as they feed on small fish. Or hop into a kayak to check out the otters, manatees, and ospreys that call Hilton Head's waterways and inlets home. More the landlubber type? The island's three nature preserves are a great place to hike the trails and explore rare pocosin bogs while spotting alligators, wild boars, and bobcats. Your biggest score: watching the island's most elusive resident, the endangered loggerhead sea turtle, lay eggs along the shore each summer.
