I'm leaving for Hilton Head very soon and am most looking forward to seeing their brand new beach. From the Hilton Head government website:
The Town of Hilton Head Island has long recognized that its beaches are a vital asset to its residents and the Island ’s economy. In an effort to maintain the Island ’s beaches in the best possible condition, the Town utilizes beach restoration as part of its long-term strategy. In September of 2006, work will begin on the Town’s next beach restoration project. Town Council intends to fund the 16.6 million dollar project, as well as future renouishments, primarily by tourism via the Beach Preservation Fee.
Click the thumbnail on the right to see a picture during the project (here are more pictures) and here are some videos. I'll be posting more in-season photos later this week or next.
