1. Stop by the Arts Center of Coastal Carolina. This theater is run by a dedicated group of islanders who organize a variety of events, including visual and performing arts as well as seasonal activities like food festivals or the Christmas Holiday tree lighting ceremony.

2. Head over to the Coastal Discovery Museum where you can take excursions, attend classes and festivals, or participate in programs to learn about the history of South Carolina’s Lowcountry. You can see the Marsh Tacky wild horses, walk the gardens, and learn about the turtles, crabs, shrimp, and other sea life that that call Hilton Head home.

ReplyDeleteThere really are so many things to occupy our time. Just because we are near a beach doesn't mean we have to be on it all the time.
ReplyDeleteBeach and fun is the best combination - party all night long!
