Hilton Head Kids Activities

Don’t miss out on an opportunity to join Harbour Town’s favorite guy, Gregg Russell, on his Bubble Gum Cruise every Thursday and Friday morning during the summer. This ninety minute boat road takes you out of the harbor and through the Calibogue Sound in search of making new friends with not just your fellow shipmates, but the dolphins as well! Join in playing games and singing songs with Gregg and his first mate Randy and make your morning melodious.

Maybe you’re more apt to hang out in Shelter Cove. Why not hop onto Shannon Tanners Wonderful Wacky Wizzle Cruise? Search the waters with Shannon Tanner for dolphins and wildlife alike! Learn about the island and all it has to offer in a super fun and interactive way! After the trip you can channel you inner pirate and partake in a treasure hunt at Shelter Cove Harbour!           

Argh Matey’s!!! Grab ahold of your treasures and keep a watchful eye out for Stinky Pete the stealin’ scallywag! Join the crew of South Carolina’s Pirates of Hilton Head aboard the Black Dagger at the dock in Harbour Town, a magnificent ship adventure, and head towards treasure on this ninety minute experience touted as “Hilton Head Island’s Best Family Boating Experience”! Unfortunately for us, Stinky Pete did in fact steal the key to the priceless treasure and you must hunt him down and make him surrender! Use the ships water cannons to blast him away and recover the treasure successfully! This ride is non-stop action fun for everyone! This is one adventure they’ll never forget!

If your little equestrian is getting antsy with all the beach fun, bring them to the Lawton Stables! Inside Sea Pines, the Lawton Stables offer a variety of programs including trail rides, pony rides, and carriage rides! Meet Harley, the seven year old Clydesdale, which use to pull the Budweiser carriage, now retired and doing carriage rides in his free time at Lawton Stables! Be sure to stop by the animal farm where you can come nose to nose with many friendly, furry creatures such as ponies, chickens, goats, and more! Kids seven and under are welcome to the pony rides provided by the loving and loyal Lawton Shetland Ponies. Regardless of their specific horsey hunger you can satisfy it all with just one trip to the stables!

Most people come here to get away; why not let the kids get away too! Bring them to Harbour Town and the old oak tree where they can participate in summer day camp! “Fun for Kids” is a very popular program allowing parents to let their little ones engage in supervised fun with other kids! They’ll play putt-putt, go swimming, and sing and dance the day away! Aged four to twelve invited!

Looking for something more hands on? Then check out Outside Hilton Head. Here you can find tons of activities from daily adventure camp to kayaking for kids. Maybe they want to spend the day playing in the water or learning to skim board! So whether it’s tubing at nighttime or catching crabs in the morning, your kids and teens will definitely find something for them at Outside Hilton Head!

We have our rainy days on the island, but don’t worry! The Island Playground is a climate controlled indoor playground big enough for children of all ages and their parents to play together! They’ll find slides, a supermarket, picnic area and lots more inside the playground, fitting the needs of any child! Parents can bring their laptop for free Wi-Fi access, watch TV, or read a magazine in the viewing area while the kids are at play!
