Hilton Head Island geographical information: The Low Country
is comprised of four counties: Beaufort, Colleton, Hampton, and Jasper. Located
primarily in the Southern most part of the state of South Carolina. Hilton Head
Island spans about 5 miles at its widest point and 12 miles in length. The
local topography is a blend of salt water marshes and sandy warm ocean beaches
from the east.
Our local climate: If you like the idea of four
seasons, although not very distinct, then you will certainly enjoy our
delightful Hilton Head Island weather . Much to our advantage, the local
climate is considered to be semi-tropical. The mid-winter temperature will
customarily range from about the 60ºs during the day to the lower
40ºs at night. The spring and fall seasons are an absolute delight with
mild day and evening temperatures.
The neighborhoods of the Hilton
Head area: There are many distinct communities in the Hilton Head area,
each with their own unique appeal. Many are gated self contained communities
offering an array of amenities ranging from golf & tennis club memberships
to private beach access. Other areas are common and open to the public having
their own special charm and appeal offering beach access to everyone.
The area map below will provide detailed information into many of the

Off Plantation
The
"Off Plantation" areas of Hilton Head Island are comprised of separate distinct
pockets of residential and higher density units of home ownership. The term
"off plantation" simply refers to a neighborhood that is not gated, and does
not offer 24-hour security. Of the off plantation neighborhoods, one of the
more sizable areas is the Forest Beach. This neighborhood is divided by the
Coligny Circle, which separates the higher density beach condominiums from the
more residential area of North Forest Beach.
The off plantation areas
are popular because they offer more affordable ownership and yet still provide
access to all the many amenities that Hilton Head Island has to offer. In the
South Forest beach area, an extensive variety of condominium types are
available with easy access to the beach
