HILTON HEAD ISLAND

Just imagine an Island where residents live by choice and in harmony with nature. Where top-ranked golf, tennis, and marine facilities, shops and restaurants, and 12 miles of unspoiled beach are practically in your backyard.

Just imagine living in a quality conscious community with government and organizations committed to the betterment of the island. Imagine the nature preserves, abundant marine and wildlife, miles of winding bike trails, young and old enthralled by the beauty of their island paradise.

This my friends, is Hilton Head Island. At some point in our lives, each of us has seen the Island’s quality and were determined to call this place home. Whether you’re visiting, considering a move here, or are already a part of the community, I think you will agree that Hilton Head Island is a beautiful, enjoyable community with a thriving, successful economy.

There is a sense of the extraordinary on Hilton Head Island. It is felt from the first glimpse of the bridge leaning toward it. Seen from those heights are stretches of wild marshlands residing with wildlife, the glass surfaced waterway sliced by a boat or perhaps a dolphin’s fin, and then the strands of pines and oaks aligning the shore. Beyond that first impression and past those shores await an island where the opulence of nature meets the best of luxurious amenities and activities.

Here on Hilton Head Island is simply a world of coastal beauty to discover. Efforts have been made to focus attention on preservation in conjunction with the numerous amenities and attractions available here.

FROM THE BEGINNING

Named for the England sea captain William Hilton, who spied the island in 1663, Hilton Head Island boasts a long and illustrious history. Archeological excavation have unearthed mysterious shell rings from civilizations that inhabited the Island 4,000 years ago. Pottery shards have been recovered from French and Spanish explorers and Ewascus and Yemassee Indian tribes dating from the 1500s. The African-American Gullah culture, prevalent since the 1800s, is a revered part of Island history. Today’s Islanders have recognized the need to preserve the esteemed heritage.

Real Estate Jokes

Hilton Head Island Beautiful home For Sale $1,000!

A couple sees an ad that says “Beautiful Hilton Head home in Palmetto Dunes in great shape $1,000.”

It must be a misprint, but they call anyway. A lady answers and says it’s not a misprint. They race over and find it’s easily worth a million bucks. They ask the seller “what’s the catch?”

The lady assures the couple there is no catch, but they are leery.

The lady says “ok, I’ll tell you the truth… last week my Husband informed me that he is leaving me for his secretary. He said I could have everything except the proceeds from the sale of the house. I agreed and he asked me if I could sell the house while he and his new girlfriend hung out in the Caribbean?” SOLD!
