Beautiful beaches are standard at Hilton Head Plantation.
Hilton Head Island SC has rebounded significantly from the days, not many years ago, when the very future of the Heritage was in question.

Beaufort County has the highest per capita income in the state at $32,290, in part thanks to Hilton Headās $45,116 per capita income, only slightly more than half of which comes from wages. Send me more information about Oldfield!
Culture Gets a Big Boost

KEY FEATURES
About Haig Point Club
Haig Point is a serene and nature-loving community set on the sea island of Daufuskie Island, located just off the South Carolina coast between Hilton Head and Savannah, GA. Without a causeway connecting it to the mainland, Daufuskie is accessible only by a private ferry system originating from Hilton Head, creating the ultimate private getaway.
With 3.5 miles of pristine beachfront, Daufuskie is surrounded by the waters of the Calibogue Sound, the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean. Residents and guests drive electric golf carts to the points of interest in and around the community, including the 150-year-old Haig Point Lighthouse, Strachan Mansion and the ruins of 19th-century slave quarters.
