Hilton Head Island, sometimes referred to as simply Hilton Head, is a Lowcountry resort town and barrier island in Beaufort County, South Carolina, United States. The island is named after Captain William Hilton, who in 1663 identified a headland near the entrance to Port Royal Sound, which mapmakers named "Hilton's Headland" The island features 12 miles (19 km) of beachfront on the Atlantic Ocean and is a popular vacation destination. In 2004, an estimated 2.25 million visitors infused more than $1.5 billion into the local economy. The year-round population was 37,661 at the 2020 census, although during the peak of summer vacation season the population can swell to 150,000. The Town of Hilton Head Island incorporated as a municipality in 1983 and is well known for its eco-friendly development. Approximately 70% of the island, including most of the tourist areas, is located inside gated communities. The town maintains several public beach access points, including one for the exclusive use of town residents, who have approved several multimillion-dollar land-buying bond referendums to control commercial growth. The Sea Pines shell ring is one of at least 50 known to exist, is 150 feet (46 m) in diameter and is believed to be over 4,000 years old. Two other shell rings on Hilton Head were destroyed when the shells were removed and used to make tabby for roads and buildings. The Green's Shell Enclosure, Sea Pine's and Skull Creek shell rings are listed in the National Register of Historic Places and are protected by law.

History

Hilton Head Island is the primary city name, but also Hilton Head are acceptable city names or spellings. The official name is Town of Hilton Head Island. Since the beginning of recorded history in the New World, the waters around Hilton Head Island have been known, occupied and fought for in turn by the English, Spanish, French, and Scots. A Spanish expedition led by Francisco Cordillo explored the area in 1521, initiating European contact with local tribes. The Green's Shell Enclosure, Sea Pines, and Skull Creek shell rings are listed in the National Register of Historic Places and are protected by law. In 1788, a small Episcopal church called the Zion Chapel of Ease was constructed for plantation owners. On October 29, 1861, the largest fleet assembled in North America moved south to seize it. In the Battle of Port Royal Sound, the U.S. Navy came under attack and on November 7, 1861 it fell to over 12,000 Union troops. The fort was renamed Fort Welles, in honor of the Secretary of the Navy, Gideon Welles. The oldest intact structure on Hilton Head is the Baynard Mausoleum, which was built in 1846. It is located near the corner of William Hilton Parkway and Mathews Drive (Folly Field) Charles Davant, a prominent island planter during the Revolutionary War, is memorialized there. During the Civil War, Fort Walker was a Confederate fort in what is now Port Royalsound. It was vital to the southern economy and trade of Sea Island Cotton and the Broad River and the Beaufort River, which fed the 2-mile wide (3 km) entrance to PortRoyal Sound.
