44 • May 2009 Where to Go Hilton Head

Hilton Head Island is a product of many cultures, backgroundsand personalities. Influences from the American Indian,African American, Spanish, French and British peoples are

reflected in the names of places, plantations, and other parts ofHilton Head Island. We’ve highlighted a few and you’ll discovermore via the tours available.

The Indian Shell Ring in the Sea Pines ForestPreserve dates back to 1450 B.C. Listed on theNational Register of Historic Places, this moundof oyster shells, animal bones & clay provides avisible monument to the prolific oyster beds andto the Indians who made them one of theirstaples.

In 1521, the Spanish left their mark on theIsland. Cordillo Parkway now bears the name ofthe Spaniard who discovered the harbor to PortRoyal about the same time St. Augustine, Floridawas founded. In 1562, Admiral Coligny sent JeanRibaut to lead French Huguenots in a search ofreligious freedom and although France andSpain fought over the harbor for many years,Spain was eventually given the land in a treaty by the RomanCatholic Pope.

By 1663, England, made her bid for a place in the new world.Sir William Hilton, aboard the good ship “Adventure,” sightedtall pines as he searched for the entrance to Port Royal. Markingthe spot on his map, sailors referred to this point as “Hilton Head.”Hilton’s glowing report of the fertile soil and ideal growingconditions on the island promoted British colonization.

1698 saw the establishment of large plantations as a result ofbarony land grants. In 1717, the agent for those original developerssold the land along Skull Creek. The real estate agent called theIsland “Trench’s Island.” Settlers established large plantations.Indigo was the major crop on Hilton Head Island from the 1740’suntil the Revolutionary War. The entire plant was soaked in water(and with the addition of crushed oyster shells, produced a blue dyevalued for its vibrancy and intensity of color.)

Across the “toe” of Trench’s Island was “Dawfoskee”.Is has beenaccepted by most historians that Daufuskie (present spelling) gotits name from the Yemassee Indian word that means “land with apoint”, (referring to its shape which resembles a pointed feather).The pictured “D’Awfoskee“ chart was published in 1776. TheAmerican Revolution fostered a need by the British military forcharts and maps of America. Daufuskie (present spelling) Islanders(Tories), supported Britain in the Revolution, while Hilton HeadIslanders supported the Colonists.

The Civil War was one of the busiest times on the island. Nearly30,000 Union troops were stationed on Hilton Head after the “Battle ofPort Royal Sound” on Nov 7, 1861. Fort Mitchel, built in 1862, andnamed for Gen. Ormsby Mitchel, who commanded the Union soldierson Hilton Head in 1862, was part of the defense for the northern endof the Island during the Union occupation. (Remains of this Fort aswell as other historical treasures have been preserved as vital treasuresof our past. A 1861 map shows the original plantations andlandmarks. (Leamington was called Leamington even in 1861.Developers have kept the Island history in mind as they have plannedpresent Island developments.) Call the Coastal Discovery Museum atHoney Horn: 843-689-3033 ext 221 and learn many more interestingdetails and make reservations to take one of their many special tours.They offer a variety of programs throughout the year.

“Modern” Hilton Head began in the 50s and the Island has seenphenomenal growth thanks to wise and carefully planneddevelopment. The term “plantation” had not been used since theturn of the century until the development of Sea Pines Plantation.Charles Fraser conceived and pioneered the concepts of respect for

the environment. His philosophy was to offeramenities first (golf courses, marinas, bike paths,etc.) and development would follow. The result ofthat philosophy you see today. (Unfortunately, Mr.Fraser died in an untimely accident in December,2002. He was buried under the Liberty Oak inHarbour Town. A fitting tribute to a man whomeant so much to the recognition and growth ofthis island.) Hilton Head recognizes over 35,000permanent residents and hosts more than twomillion visitors each year. The Island hasbecome a year round resort destination.

There are two lighthouses on HiltonHead. Most famous is the 90 ft. tall Harbour Townlighthouse in Sea Pines. Climb to the top. Takeyour camera. (You’ll also find a great shop with thebest selection of lighthouse memorabilia

anywhere.) The other one is on the Arthur Hills Golf Course inPalmetto Dunes Resort.

Turtle Lane is so named for the Loggerhead turtles who come toshore to bury their eggs then return to the sea (you’ll see whitemarkers along the beach designating a protected area whereLoggerheads make their way to their nesting area). And in yearspast, we even had a Leatherback Turtle make her way to our shores.

More than 250 species of birds return to Hilton Head duringthe year. “The Birders Guide to Hilton Head Island And TheLowcountry,” published by Hilton Head Audubon Society, isconsidered to be the ‘birders’ bible.

The SC State Tree is the Sabal or Cabbage Palmetto. Hardiestpalm along the coastal plain, the trunk is covered with overlays ofthick husks. Palmetto means “small palm” in Spanish. This tree wasa symbol of the Revolution. The Palmetto is pictured on our stateflag & state seal. A full size replica of the tree stands on the groundsof the State Capitol in Columbia. It was erected as a memorial tothe men of the Palmetto Regiment of South Carolina who fought inthe Mexican War.

The State Shell is the Lettered Olive. Our State Bird, the CarolinaWren, is pictured on some SC license plates. Yellow Jasmine is theState Flower. The state dance is “The Shag”. The Peach, the statefruit, and the state beverage is (nope, not gin & tonic), but milk (1%or at least lowfat, I hope). (The state social drink is iced tea.) The statefish is the Bass. The state animal is the Whitetail Deer (Bambi &friends), not the alligator. And also listed in the SC Legislativehandbook is the state spider: the Wolf Spider.

Shaped like a shoe (toe, instep, heel and ankle), Hilton Headis about 12 miles long, up to 4 miles wide and encompassesabout 42 square miles. The beach extends almost the entire lengthof the Island. Trees grow right up to the beachline. Beautiful palmsand palmettos, magnolias, tall pines and ancient oak trees areabundant. This natural protection as well as God’s smile havepreserved our Island from heavy storm damage.

Not “just another pretty place,” Hilton Head is a very specialIsland that more than 35,000 of us call home. Not without ourgrowing pains (or maybe we can call them “growing gains”), we’reconcerned with our environment and Island growth with itsaccompanying problems. We continue to define and implementways to make our Island even better. Come again and be a part ofthe new history you are helping create on Hilton Head Island.

BEAUFORTTake time to explore the historical city of Beaufort, less than anhour away. Architecture you don’t see on Hilton Head, a citysteeped in history plus the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful Low-country ambience as you drive. Did you know that settlementwas attempted in Beaufort even before St. Augustine and almosthalf a century before Jamestown and Plymouth Rock? Prior to theCivil War, Beaufort was known as one of the wealthiest cities forits size in America. Beautiful antebellum homes designed alongGeorgian and colonial architectural lines stand today as a monu-ment to a splendid past as well as symbols of a flourishing econo-my. Waterfront Park hosts the Gullah Festival in May, theWater Festival in July and walking or driving toursthroughout the year. The Beaufort Chamber of Commerce 1-843-524-3163 is on Boundary Street. They offer useful literature,maps & more information on making the most of your visit.

BLUFFTONFrom a quiet little town to a growing thoroughfare leading toHilton Head Island, Bluffton is becoming a thriving business com-munity. Besides providing rich cultural and historical opportuni-ties, many businesses have chosen Bluffton to relocate, or to openadditional “off island” shopping & dining opportunities. From thehistorical streets and homes now made into museums to thenational businesses like Home Depot & the Tanger Outlet Storeswith more than 100 national discount stores, you’ll find art gal-leries and lovely old churches, and many quaint little shops. Butmaybe its the people that you will enjoy. Truly wonderful folks,who got there first; knew a good thing and stayed. (Don’t speed.They will be waiting for you.)

DAUFUSKIE ISLANDAccording to the late Billie Burn, who’s book “An Island CalledDaufuskie” , the most comprehensive and complete history of theisland, the name Daufuskie came from the American Indian worddaufa meaning feather, and fuskie meaning short or pointed,describing the shape of the island. The past few years have seen adramatic change from the island described in Pat Conroy’s book“The Water Is Wide”. Today, the island features three luxuri-ous gated communities: Haig Point, Melrose and BloodyPoint, as well as the Historical Districts that allow one to“step back in time”. Just minutes from Harbour Town by boatbut miles apart in character, the island features 3 magnificent golfcourses (including a Rees Jones favorite), gorgeous uncrowdedbeaches, tennis courts, great biking and a wonderful array of floraand fauna. Calibogue Cruises (342-TOUR) offers trips into thepast on the Island, as well as a look to the future as you observeone of the last barrier islands to be developed. You can spend thenight in one of their Crab Shacks (rustic elegance) at FreeportMarina, complete with great stories to tell when you get backhome. Outside Hilton Head (686-6996) also offers tours of theisland, as well as trips between Page Island & Daufuskie.

SAVANNAH, GAWhy not go by boat!! Take the Spirit of Harbour Town (363-9026), departs from Harbour Town. A memorable and effortless tripvia water to River Street. Once a riverfront collection of run-downand abandoned warehouses, River Street today is a charming, park-filled area where you can watch tugboats busily forcing huge shipsinto their respective loading docks. Spend the day in the gift and spe-ciality shops. Sample the seafood in the many restaurants. Enjoy acarriage tour or Trolley to some of the historical sections. Savannahboasts many home museums, at least 13 public museums, and his-torical Old Fort Jackson. (You’ll need a car or cab to get there). Oneof the most interesting museums is Ships of the Sea Maritime Muse-um (912-232-1511). The Haunted History Walking Tour, Civil War/City History & Ironworks Tour are fascinating .(912-232-4268).“There are more ghosts in downtown Savannah than anywhere elsein the United States.” Learn more about the famous Mercer House(Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil). If your schedule permits,have breakfast or lunch at Mrs. Wilkes Restaurant. Or lunch or din-ner at Paula Deen’s Lady & Sons. At the end of your visit the returnto Hilton Head (by boat or taxi) will bring you back safely and withfar more beautiful scenery, not to mention great memories, than dri-ving it yourself. Hwy 278 is open to I-95 at Exit 8 or you can takeHighway 17. If you drive, please don’t speed!! Especiallythrough Bluffton. Speed trap!!! (Another reason to go by boat)

“BEER IS PROOF THAT GOD LOVES US & WANTS US TO BE HAPPY”Benjamin Franklin, philosopher, politician, inventor (and lover of an ice cold beer).

Happy Hours


ALCOHOL, SPEED LIMITS AND THE LAWA word of concern from WHERE TO GO. We care about

you and your safety. There is nothing pleasant about spendingyour vacation in the Beaufort County Jail. They are nice folksover there, but there is no “Happy Hour” (and they do notaccept VISA or MasterCard) In fact, we can almost guaranteeyou will NOT have a good time.

DUI’s go directly to jail. They do cross the bridge, butthey do NOT collect $200. In fact, you may end up payingthat amount. And SC law prohibits open containers ofany alcoholic beverages in the passenger section of yourcar. Judge Rita Simmons, is very personable, but you donot want to see her in court.

The speed limit on the Island is 45 mph with 35 posted in

many areas. Our Law Enforcement team is very effective so donot exceed the limit. Believe me, they do not want to “make

your day.” The speed limit coming onto the Island is 55 mph

TOPS. It’s 45 at the foot of the bridge and they mean it! Watch

it on the Cross Island Expressway, and especially on Palmetto

Bay Rd. Unmarked Thunderbirds are watching for you and

their sole reason for existence is writing tickets.

It would be smart not to mix boating & alcohol.The Beaufort County Marine Patrol may be watchingyou. Be smart & safe. And watch those no wake zones.

BAR AND LIQUOR LAWSPackage stores are identified by the red dot. They close at

7:00 p.m. Mon-Sat. Closed on Sunday. You may buy an alco-

holic beverage Sundays in most restaurants serving food.

Beer & wine are available Sundays at the grocerystores. An ordinance prohibits alcohol on the beach!
