Condo Rentals - Photos, quotes and reservations. A Fine Time for Golf in Hilton Head by Shelley Poulton Golfer's paradise is shaped like a shoe. Hilton Head, a small island off the coast of South Carolina, continues to attract golf enthusiasts worldwide with its 35 championship courses. But even if you think birdies are found only in the sky and bogey was just a great Hollywood actor, there's something for you in Hilton Head. Located in the Atlantic, about 90 miles from the Georgia border, the island is lined with miles of sandy beaches.
Bike rentals are available at numerous shops.
If you prefer a four-legged ride, horseback riding is available at several stables on the island. No matter what mode of transportation you choose, you won't travel far without running into one of the island's golf courses. The world class courses have been designed by greats like Jack Nicklaus and Tom Fazio, and the island is a stop on the PGA Tour. Designer fashions and pro shops abound. After a hard day on the links, vacationers can take their pick of dining establishments that offer everything from fresh seafood to more exotic Indian or Chinese cuisine.
