Are you itchin to get back to nature on your Hilton Head Vacation? why not take a quick ride out to Pinckney Island Wildlife Refuge? Pinckney Island is the body of land that you see when you drive onto the island, actually, you have already been to Pinckney! it is the little island between the mainland and Hilton Head!
If you are leaving the island, take a right after the first bridge and that is the refuge. there are 14 miles of trails through protected wetlands and forest areas. There are no motorized vehicles allowed on these trails as they are a precious and fragile entitiy to the eco-system that exists within the South Carolina Barrier Islands.
There are over 200 types of birds that live on Pinckney Island including the Egret and Cranes. It is advised that all hikers or bicyclists stay on the trails although this is a beautiful island, it is important to remember that South Carolina is also home to many poisonous snakes.

Savannah, GA is about 50 minutes from Hilton Head Island. 
This quaint historic town is a great day trip for you and your family while on your Hilton Head Vacation.
Take a horse drawn carriage ride through the squares of downtown Savannah. Or experience the history by the Savannah River on River Street then take a trip one street up to City Market.
Savannah is home to one of the best art schools in the country, the Savannah College of Art & Design which creates a culturally enriching atmosphere for its residents and visitors alike. As you stroll though the downtown areas of Savannah, you will see local artists work all around, from hand sculpted chess pieces to large murals.
Savannah is the setting for the John Berendt book Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil and there are references to the best seller all around the city. Savannah is also home to the Juliette Gordon Low house who happens to be the founder of the Girl Scouts.
In addition to the art and eccentric people you will encounter, Savannah is one of the spookiest cities around! sign up for a ghost tour and learn about all the supernatural things that have gone on throught the city by the sea. If ghost tours don’t really sound like your thing, you can take a normal tour though Savannah during the day time and learn about all that Savannah has been through.
Once your tour i
s up, you can swing into Lady & Son’s for some good home cooking at Paula Deen’s restaurant (the cornbread is to die for).
Savannah is a wonderfully diverse place that has something to offer everybody and we here at Maximum Vacations would be happy to help you plan your day outing to Savannah! Call us today and book your discount vacation!
