One of the busiest weeks on Hilton Head Island is here, the
week of the Fourth of July. Saturday we as a nation and those of us on Hilton Head
will celebrate the adoption of the Declaration of Independence from July 4,
1776.
If you are fortunate enough to be celebrating Independence
Day on Hilton Head Island, watching fireworks is most likely the foremost
activity on your mind. The most popular place to view fireworks is Shelter Cove
Marina, located mid-island. The fireworks start at 9:00pm. There are plenty of
restaurants from which you may choose to dine prior to the display. Due to the huge
influx of people Shelter Cove receives for this event, there will be two
parking lots available with complementary shuttles. If you are within walking
or biking distance of this location or the following, that would my preferred mode
of transportation.
On the South End of Hilton Head, Harbour Town in Sea Pines
is also hosting a Fourth of July Celebration. Sea Pines is providing a shuttle
for ease of parking as well. Fireworks will be at 9:00pm after live music, activities,
and plenty of food and drink at one of Sea Pines Resort’s restaurants.
Fret not if you are on the North End of Hilton Head. Skull
Creek Boathouse will also host a firework display with live music beginning at
6:00pm.
Please keep in mind that all locations will be very busy. Whether
you are a guest on our Island or resident, be careful and mindful of the people
around you. We are all here to have a great time and celebrate a proud day in
our nation’s history.
As always, if the thought of leaving this beautiful island
is too much to bear, please call us at Windmill Harbour Real Estate Company,
(843) 681-5600. We are happy to help make this your home too!
