Hilton Head or Bust, Part 2

Even off the beach we had a grand time in Hilton Head last weekend. (You can read about the beach in Part 1.)

We fed ravenous turtles :

We rode 14.8 miles on cruiser bikes to tour the island!

You read that correctly. On vacation, 15 miles, on single speed bikes.

We tried to go crabbing (unsuccessfully):

those are chicken necks in my hand!

We ate seafood :

Left : Low-Country Boil at Tom and Sheena's, Right : Snow Crab Boil at the Crazy Crab

We boated through the marshlands :

We saw dolphins and osprey!

And generally had a crazy good time.

A screamer, a crabber, a driver, and an invalid walk into a bar...

Here are our recommendations if you travel to Hilton Head, SC :

1. Stay in Palmetto Dunes

2. If you decide to go crabbing, do it off of a pier, not on the beach.

3. For drinks in a great outdoor atmosphere, try the Tiki Bar at the back of the Hilton.

4. Map your bike trail before you set out so you know how far you are about to go.

5. Feed the birds and the turtles, but not the alligators.

Mmmm, adventures.
