 The List of Things I Should Not Miss
FREE (OR ALMOST FREE
“Today I will commit one random act of senseless kindness”
HECK OUT TIDE CHART and go for a long walk on
C our beautiful beaches, (better yet, ride your bike). You’ll
pass several beautiful hotels, oceanfront homes, & enjoy the
soft breezes you came here for. Tides fluctuate as much as
seven feet. Plan ahead & leave your towels & picnic supplies
far enough back so they won’t get soaked or washed away.
(The tide chart is in the Nautical Notes section. Or refer to
the Table of Contents.)
TAKE AN EARLY MORNING WALK ON THE BEACH or
a bike ride. Enjoy coffee at one of the oceanfront hotels or
take your coffee with you. (Check the tide chart in the
Nautical section to see how much beach you’ll have for
walking. High tide is not the best time.) And remember:
NO GLASS ON THE BEACH! This is strictly enforced.
And it will NOT BE FREE! But the good news is that you
can take your dog to the beach.
TANGER OUTLETS 1 & 2 Hwy 278 at the Gateway to
Hilton Head. Its bargain hunting at its best. More and
more outlets are joining the Tanger family. The kids are
back in school and before you know it, its the holiday sea-
son. You’ll find EVERYTHING you need and want and at
great prices. Get the Free Coupon Book & enjoy hun-
dreds of dollars in additional savings. (See their ad)
ENDANGERED ARTS FALL ARTISTS SHOW October
17-18 & October 24-25. See Where and When for the
details. It doesn’t cost a thing to enjoy the beautiful new
works of the internationally known artists. They’ll actual-
ly be painting in the gallery both weekends. Meet Julie
and Clay Rogers, owners of the gallery. They welcome
your visit. This is a definite ‘should not miss’ event.
Located in South Island Square. See page 57
MARICULTURE TOURS at the Waddell Mariculture
Center in Bluffton is a great family outing. Its a great
report for the kids when they go back to school. Learn
about the fishing eco-system and how shrimp are raised
and protected. For times of the tours & details: 837-3795
Drive carefully. And please stay within the varying speed limits.
And use your turn signals to indicate you’re changing lanes.
Those tickets, really make for a bad day!!! Be especially careful
on the Cross Island Expressway. The speed limit changes dra-
matically before or after you cross. Believe me, it will not be
free! Have some change for the toll booth. They “take names”
(actually license plate numbers) if you speed through and
don’t pay the toll. We want you to have fun and not take home
bad memories or points on your license. Courtesy usually pre-
vails, but just in case, give the guy that’s in such a hurry all the
room he needs. You’ll arrive about the same time he does, but
without the stress (or a ticket).(And you’ll have extra money in
your pocket to spend on food and fun.)
GO FOR IT!
IT DOESN’T COST THAT MUCH
TO ENJOY THE VERY BEST
TRAIL RIDES, PONY RIDES & SMALL ANIMAL FARM
AT LAWTON STABLES in Sea Pines on Greenwood
Drive. Escorted trail rides through the scenic Sea Pines

merchandise. And you’ll be helping a worthy cause and
saving money on slightly used and previously loved cloth-
ing, books, toys, artwork, and more. 785-2322

O utstanding accommodations, great restaurants,
value driven & stylish shopping, a different golf
course for every day of your visit, enough tennis part-
ners (if you didn’t bring your own), hundreds of tennis
courts, great sailing, fishing & days of play on and in the
water, a plethora of spas to keep you relaxed. Hilton
Head Island has become a year-round vacation choice.
More corporations, associations and groups are taking
advantage of the wide variety of activities for families
this time of year as well as other seasons. While you're
here, ask about group rates & attractive off-season
rates for your next visit. You’ll be impressed with the
professional & helpful staff to help make your next
meeting the best one yet.

silhouetted against the sky or dozens of neon signs
flashing “Welcome”as you drove onto the island? Not in
this town!! Even the Red Roof Inn doesn’t have a bright
red roof on Hilton Head (they did manage to get the
Town to approve a muted red roof)! Our business com-

 History of the Island
ilton Head Island is a product of many cultures, backgrounds
H and personalities. Influences from the American Indian,
African American, Spanish, French and British peoples are
reflected in the names of places, plantations, and other parts of
Hilton Head Island. We’ve highlighted a few and you’ll discover
more via the tours available.
The Indian Shell Ring in the Sea Pines Forest
Preserve dates back to 1450 B.C. Listed on the
National Register of Historic Places, this mound
of oyster shells, animal bones & clay provides a
visible monument to the prolific oyster beds and
to the Indians who made them one of their
staples.
In 1521, the Spanish left their mark on the
Island. Cordillo Parkway now bears the name of
the Spaniard who discovered the harbor to Port
Royal about the same time St. Augustine, Florida
was founded. In 1562, Admiral Coligny sent Jean
Ribaut to lead French Huguenots in a search of
religious freedom and although France and Spain
fought over the harbor for many years, Spain was
eventually given the land in a treaty by the Roman Catholic Pope.
By 1663, England, made her bid for a place in the new world.
Sir William Hilton, aboard the good ship “Adventure,” sighted tall
pines as he searched for the entrance to Port Royal. Marking the
spot on his map, sailors referred to this point as “Hilton Head.”
Hilton’s glowing report of the fertile soil and ideal growing conditions
on the island promoted British colonization.
1698 saw the establishment of large plantations as a result of
barony land grants. In 1717, the agent for those original developers
sold the land along Skull Creek. The real estate agent called the Island
“Trench’s Island.” Settlers established large plantations. Indigo was
the major crop on Hilton Head Island from the 1740’s until the
Revolutionary War. The entire plant was soaked in water (and with
the addition of crushed oyster shells, produced a blue dye valued for
its vibrancy and intensity of color.)
Across the “toe” of Trench’s Island was “Dawfoskee”.Is has been
accepted by most historians that Daufuskie (present spelling) got its
name from the Yemassee Indian word that means “land with a
point”, (referring to its shape which resembles a pointed feather). The
pictured “D’Awfoskee“ chart was published in 1776. The American
Revolution fostered a need by the British military for charts and
maps of America. Daufuskie (present spelling) Islanders (Tories),
supported Britain in the Revolution, while Hilton Head Islanders
supported the Colonists.
The Civil War was one of the busiest times on the island. Nearly
30,000 Union troops were stationed on Hilton Head after the “Battle of
Port Royal Sound” on Nov 7, 1861. Fort Mitchel, built in 1862, and
named for Gen. Ormsby Mitchel, who commanded the Union soldiers
on Hilton Head in 1862, was part of the defense for the northern end
of the Island during the Union occupation. (Remains of this Fort as
well as other historical treasures have been preserved as vital treasures
of our past. A 1861 map shows the original plantations and
landmarks. (Leamington was called Leamington even in 1861.
Developers have kept the Island history in mind as they have planned
present Island developments.) Call the Coastal Discovery Museum at
Honey Horn: 843-689-3033 ext 221 and learn many more interesting
details 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 seen
phenomenal growth thanks to wise and carefully planned
development. The term “plantation” had not been used since the turn
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 offer
amenities first (golf courses, marinas, bike paths,
etc.) and development would follow. The result of
that philosophy you see today. (Unfortunately, Mr.
Fraser died in an untimely accident in December,
2002. He was buried under the Liberty Oak in
Harbour Town. A fitting tribute to a man who meant
so much to the recognition and growth of this
island.) Hilton Head recognizes over 35,000
permanent residents and hosts more than two
million visitors each year. The Island has become
a year round resort destination.
There are two lighthouses on Hilton
Head. Most famous is the 90 ft. tall Harbour Town
lighthouse in Sea Pines. Climb to the top. Take your
camera. (You’ll also find a great shop with the best
selection of lighthouse memorabilia anywhere.) The
other one is on the Arthur Hills Golf Course in Palmetto Dunes Resort.
Turtle Lane is so named for the Loggerhead turtles who come to
shore to bury their eggs then return to the sea (you’ll see white
markers along the beach designating a protected area where
Loggerheads make their way to their nesting area). And just this
year, we had a Leatherback Turtle who made her way to our shores.
More than 250 species of birds return to Hilton Head during
the year. “The Birders Guide to Hilton Head Island And The
Lowcountry,” published by Hilton Head Audubon Society, is
considered to be the ‘birders’ bible.
The SC State Tree is the Sabal or Cabbage Palmetto. Hardiest
palm along the coastal plain, the trunk is covered with overlays of
thick husks. Palmetto means “small palm” in Spanish. This tree was
a symbol of the Revolution. The Palmetto is pictured on our state
flag & state seal. A full size replica of the tree stands on the grounds
of the State Capitol in Columbia. It was erected as a memorial to
the men of the Palmetto Regiment of South Carolina who fought in
the Mexican War.
The State Shell is the Lettered Olive. Our State Bird, the Carolina
Wren, is pictured on some SC license plates. Yellow Jasmine is the
State Flower. The state dance is “The Shag”. The Peach, the state
fruit, 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 state fish
is the Bass. The state animal is the Whitetail Deer (Bambi & friends),
not the alligator. Recently listed in the SC Legislative handbook is the
state spider: the Wolf Spider.
Shaped like a shoe (toe, instep, heel and ankle), Hilton Head is
about 12 miles long, up to 4 miles wide and encompasses about 42
square miles. The beach extends almost the entire length of the
Island. Trees grow right up to the beachline. Beautiful palms and
palmettos, magnolias, tall pines and ancient oak trees are abundant.
This natural protection as well as God’s smile have preserved our
Island from heavy storm damage.
Not “just another pretty place,” Hilton Head is a very special
Island that more than 35,000 of us call home. Not without our
growing pains (or maybe we can call them “growing gains”), we’re
concerned with our environment and Island growth with its
accompanying problems. We continue to define and implement
ways to make our Island even better. Come again and be a part of
the new history you are helping create on Hilton Head Island.
