Chasing the Sun on Hilton Head Island's Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort

Many savvy golfers set up shop at Hilton Head Island’s renowned Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort for the best package deals available

(HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C.) — A quick scan of the PGA Tour schedule leaves little wonder why the world’s best golfers jumpstart their seasons by flocking south like geese to Florida for a quartet of March clambakes. Three short weeks following the Floridian finale at Arnie’s place, there’s a little gathering in Augusta, Ga., called the Masters. “I’ll get my game razor-sharp in Florida,” the players say to themselves, “then head to Augusta ready to roll.”

It’s a similar approach for vacationers looking to jumpstart their spring seasons. Which is why many savvy travelers are taking advantage of attractively priced package deals at renowned places such as the Palmetto Dunes Oceanfront Resort on Hilton Head Island. Every April the week after the Masters, fans of world-class golf — or at least a great time — flock to Hilton Head for the PGA Tour’s popular island event, The Heritage.

LINKS Magazine recently selected the World’s Top 25 Golf Islands and Hilton Head ranked No. 7 on the auspicious list. LINKS said Hilton Head enjoyed the “Biggest Selection of Accessible Courses.”

“More than two dozen to choose from, at every price level,” the magazine wrote of Hilton Head, “and most of them with plenty of available tee times.”
