Hauntingly beautiful is perhaps the best way to describe South Carolina's Low Country and Resort Islands. Miles of white beaches washed clean by the tide - free of tracks except those left by a hermit crab or sea turtle, endless marshes alive with the calls of birds and rustling flight, and trees laden with Spanish moss add to its ethereal setting. It is this ambiance that annually draws thousands to Hilton Head Island, the region's most popular world-class resort. Hilton Head's recreational facilities include hundreds of tennis courts and over two dozen championship golf courses, one of which annually hosts the nationally televised golf tournament, The Heritage. |
