Do NOT feed the alligators! 

Fines could exceed $1,000 for feeding alligators, but it is also dangerous for both humans and the alligators. 

Alligators that have been fed by people will become more aggressive and less fearful about approaching humans and will then have to be removed and disposed of by wildlife authorities. 

Please enjoy all of our beautiful wildlife but respect all animals in the wild by not feeding or harassing them.

Hilton Head Island is known for its beautiful beaches and scenic dunes. Please help preserve the natural ecology of our area by disposing of your litter properly, using designated beach accesses, by not walking across the dunes, and by not removing live creatures such as sand dollars and starfish from the beach.  If you dig a hole or build a sandcastle, please fill in your holes and demolish your sandcastle before leaving the beach.  Never dig holes any deeper than 12″ as they then become obstacles to nesting or hatching sea turtles.

ALLIGATORS

Take a good look at that log floating in a pond because, chances are, it's not a log but an alligator. Alligators are indigenous to South Carolina and are found in lagoons, swamps and slow-moving streams. You will often see them sunning themselves on the banks of a lagoon. Do not go near them. Although they look like they are sleeping, they can move quickly and whatever you do, DO NOT feed or harass them.

PALMETTO BUGS

During your stay, you may encounter bugs that you have never seen before, the most common of which is the Palmetto Bug. These bugs live in palmetto trees and live oaks, not indoors. While Palmetto Bugs are native to the island, so are exterminators who conduct monthly Palmetto Bug termination treatments.
The bugs are approximately 2" long and have a hard outer shell. They do not bite, can do you no harm, but they do fly. If you encounter one of these in your villa, it is because it has flown in from the trees…so please do not leave your sliding doors open and remember to close doors as soon as you enter or exit the doorways.

DOLPHINS

It is hard not to be fascinated by these intelligent creatures that are so prevalent in coastal South Carolina’s waters. You will probably see them just offshore at any beach that you go to during your stay. In addition, there are many dolphin-watching boat excursions that leave from the Bluewater Dock (see Activity and Recreation Reservations section), the Shelter Cove Marina and from Harbour Town in Sea Pines.

SEA TURTLES

These magnificent creatures are on the endangered species list. They build their nests on the beaches of South Carolina, instinctively returning to the place of their birth to lay their eggs. Oceanfront units and homes are required to curtail their use of lights after 10:00 p.m. during turtle nesting season.

Spinnaker Resorts is dedicated to the conservation and protection of our local waterways and marine ecosystems.  Please help us keep prevent introducing invasive species from any other location into our protected waterways by following the recommended boat preparation guidelines, including all fishing and recreational equipment, such as rods, holding wells, tubes, water skis and wake boards for example.

Please review the Preparation Guidelines to follow before putting your boat, water recreation equipment and fishing gear in to the local waterways.

Under South Carolina law, if a hurricane threatens Hilton Head Island, the Local Government will first issue a Voluntary Evacuation Order. At that time, Southwind Management will request that all Owners and Guests leave the resort in order to allow staff to prepare for the impending hurricane.

If the Governor issues a Mandatory Evacuation Order, all Residents and Visitors to the island are required to leave the island immediately and will not be able to return until the storm passes and local authorities allow re-entry to the island.

After the storm has passed and the Governor rescinds the Evacuation Order, call toll-free (800) 963-5023 for re-entry information.

1. The right lane on westbound US 278 will exit to I-95 northbound.
