Summer is calling here in the Coastal Lowcountry. Memorial Day weekend on Hilton Head Island is the kick off to summer and June is the perfect month to soak up the sun on one of our beautiful beaches. Our sleepy resort town starts to hum with life as the visitors come to enjoy our Island in the sun. The Island’s unmistakable Lowcountry charm can be found from the tranquil waterways and marshes to the windswept beaches.  Whether you choose to tee off at one on of our world-class golf courses, explore the waterways by kayak, or simply relax and unwind on the beach, Hilton Head has you covered and reminds us daily of why we love to call Hilton Head Island home.

June is full of exciting events here in the Lowcountry including Palmetto Bluff’s concerts on the green, Shelter Cove’s Harbourfest, sunset celebrations at Shelter Cove, art exhibits, and live outdoor entertainment. The possibilities for fun are endless here on Hilton Head Island and in Bluffton.  

All Month Long

The Coastal Discovery Museum provides tours, walks, programs, and exhibits about the Lowcountry. Events are scheduled daily. To learn more about the Coastal Discovery monthly events, contact 843-689-6767 or visit CoastalDiscovery.com
