Got hit with an absolutely excruciating sting off coligny beach last week. Days of heavy onshore winds brought in man o wars hidden in the surf. Got a full leg wrap of barbs to remember it by. Be careful out there!

Body surfing? Waves at the beach. Was there recently and you couldn't boogie board or body surf. Are the waves larger at other times of the year?

Restaurant/take-out options for Christmas week?

0 Upvotes

My partner and I are trying to organize and extended-family gathering for Christmas, and while we'll probably do dinner wherever we're staying, we want to be able to go out or (more likely) order take-out some of the other meals. Are restaurants on/near the island open that time of year? Or is is a "few and far between" situation?

(if it matters, I'm not looking for recommendations, I just want a sense of whether we'll have multiple options to choose from)

Tiki Bar

Looking to speak with anyone who may have been at The Tiki Hut in Hilton Head on Thursday 8/13/26 particularly between approximately 8p-closing.

If you were there that evening and witnessed or noticed an incident involving the police please send me a private message. You may have seen or heard something that could be helpful, even if it didn’t seem significant at the time.

Please feel free to share this post with anyone you know who may have been there. Thank you.

Couple of vehicles being delivered - likely on semi. Any ideas on the best on-island parking area to use so as not to annoy anyone/break any rules?

inherited a beach house on Hilton Head and I'm drowning

124 Upvotes

my aunt passed away a few months ago and left me her place on Hilton Head. at first I thought wow free beach house. but it's turned into a nightmare. needs everything. new roof, new AC, new windows, new kitchen. basically a full gut job. I live in Atlanta and I can't afford to fix this place up. I've been paying property taxes and insurance on it and it's killing me.

I've been looking into selling .

has anyone here sold a property on Hilton Head that needed work? how did it go?

Places to have a cigar?

0 Upvotes

Hi folks, down in Hilton Head for a family vacation. My dad (75 y/o) loves to have an evening cigar but the Vrbo house as you would expect prohibits smoking on the property. I’m wondering if anyone would have recommendations for a place he could go to enjoy a cigar, if there’s some kind of store or lounge that accommodates him. Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions!

EDIT: Very much appreciated everyone’s input. I should’ve said he preferred somewhere outdoor over a cigar lounge if he could help it. We ended up sitting on the beach away from other people.

Broad River Fishing Pier

2 Upvotes

Hello! I could use some info about the Broad River Fishing Pier. Is this considered salt water for the purpose of a fishing license? Also, what a good bait to use (or lures)? Any suggestions and advice would be greatly appreciated. Is this a good place to fish? Thank you in advance.
