Hilton Head Island, SC


After Maryland, we headed over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and Tunnel  further down the coast.  After a full day’s drive, we ended up at our destination, Hilton Head Island.

We spent several days exploring the island.  The old plantations were quite interesting, as we observed the fiddler crabs, osprey nests, as well as many other local plants and animals.  We really enjoyed the Spanish moss hanging from all the trees.

The beach, as always, was a hit with everyone!  Juliana found a turtle nesting area just next to our beach towels. 

And of course, we made a return pilgrimage to the old HHI lighthouse.  After a long trek to the top of the tower, we quite enjoyed the view all around.
