Hanging Out in Hilton Head

Memorial Day weekend on this idyllic resort island.
Log

After an overnight stop anchored at Wassaw National Wildlife Refuge, Georgia, we sailed on to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, our third state so far.

Hilton Head has beautiful homes, marinas and beaches. The Calibogue Sound, between the Island and mainland, is full of dolphins and pelicans. The beaches seem tropical with fine white sand and palm trees. For those who play golf, which we don’t, it boasts numerous world class golf courses.

We enjoyed exploring the area and swimming from the beaches, some secluded and some crawling with humanity!

A highlight of the visit was catching up with Rochester Yacht Club friends, Joe and Carol who have made Hilton Head their new home along with Baby Grand, their Grand Banks trawler.

  1. A part la foule sur la plage, c’est vrai que les moments que vous vivez paraissent assez idylliques. Heureusement qu’il y a les “troubles” pour remettre les pieds sur terre !

    1. Jim, You know three rules of sailing:

      1. Keep the water out of the boat
      2. Keep the people in the boat
      3. Look GOOD!

      😊
