SAVANNAH TO HILTON HEAD ISLAND


DAY 292 FRI. MAY 4, 2012
DEP. SAVANNAH 07:15, ARR. HILTON HEAD IS. 10:35
D. 28.1sm / 4434.7 [1]
We bid farewell to Steve & Beth and headed for Hilton Head Island (HHI), just 28 miles north.  At 07:50 am we started across the Savannah River and spotted the USCG Eagle inbound to the Tall Ship Parade in Savannah Harbor.  We quickly turned to starboard, cruised by her to port, then made a u turn to continue our journey.  She was a thrilling site!  HHI is a very “upscale” Island.  The marina is beautiful, and there are many shops nearby.  There were a lot of beautiful homes and many high end condos.  There was a shuttle that took guests to the various shops and the beach.  We went to the beach and it was one of the nicest ones we’ve ever seen.  On a side note, we met a couple that we knew from our trip down the ICW in 1999 aboard their boat Adnil, and they are still cruising.
