My wife and I will be taking a vacation with our 1 year old (his first real trip) in April, and are considering going to either Kiawah Island or Hilton Head Island. We haven't been to either location and have heard pros/cons for both places but would like to hear the opinions of others who have been to both places...
Thanks,
Rick
I lived in South Carolina for roughly three years & visited both places on numerous occasions. There are more lodging facilities & restaurants in Hilton Head. Although my family & I frequented both places, we found ourselves making the trip to Hilton Head more often. Tourists are pretty much restricted from entering Kiawah Island. There is a beach for the general public’s use & you can buy a pass to get onto the main hub of the island, but you’re only permitted to visit a certain location.
There are also some restricted areas on Hilton Head, but this island is much larger than Kiawah Island & you will quickly see there are more activities for you & your family to indulge in.
There is an internet cafe' on the island, found this one on 278 in a large shopping center near KFC. Not sure want the cost is so check around. Wish I knew this was here earlier, would have used it myself.
One of my favorite restaurants in the entire world in terms of the view. I will let them describe it:
The Old Oyster Factory is truly a Hilton Head Landmark. Built on the site of one the island's original oyster canneries, this beautiful restaurant serves up nothing but the best seafood, vegetables and steaks. The award-winning architecture affords some of Hilton Head's most beautiful views of Broad Creek with Shelter Cove in the beyond. The culinary staff which is headed by Franz Auer, is preparing dishes which you will talk about for years to come. The Old Oyster Factory is not just another dinner out, it is part of the Hilton Head Island Experience
This restaurant is a can't miss experience on the Island. This coming from someone who has travelled and eaten all over the world. Start out with oysters on the half shell and then scallops for an entree...finish it with an espresso and creme brulee for desert.
Hilton Head Island is probably best known for its world-class golf courses and facilities . . . The Lowcountry is home to more than 30 courses, both private and public . . . Each year HH hosts the MCI Classic - The Heritage of Golf at Harbour Town Golf Links in Sea Pines, bringing some of the top names in PGA golf along with it
