Hilton Head Island for the Nature Lovers: Wildlife and Conservation
Each April, we celebrate Earth Month and invite nature lovers to share in our passion for preserving the outdoors and our region's wildlife. Hilton Head Island is America's first eco-planned community, prioritizing and protecting the Lowcountry's biodiversity. As stewards of the land, we offer an array of outdoor attractions and activities that deliver on our mission to uphold our environment — while making it fun for the whole family. From spotting native bird species flying high and seeing dolphins breaching the surface of Lowcountry waters to catching a glimpse of loggerhead sea turtle nests, we've compiled ways to engage with local wildlife safely. Plus, learn how we celebrate the environment through conservation efforts that help protect our ecosystem. So, bring your binoculars, pack your camera, and get set to take in the Lowcountry's rich natural wonders.
