There are 10 miles of ocean front on Hilton Head. If you are staying in Sea Pines or Palmetto Dunes where beach access is private you can enter the beach at their respective beach clubs where you can park, or any boardwalk near your rental if close enough to walk. People using the public beach access at Coligny will access at the end of Pope Avenue where there is nearby public parking.
There are numerous bike rental companies on the island, this is our personal favorite. Order in advance and bikes will be waiting for you at your rental. Biking can be a wonderful way to enjoy the beauty of the island and ride along the hard sand of the beach.
The wedding venue is located on site at the Coastal Discovery Museum.
