Sea Turtle Patrol Hilton Head Island

17/05/2022

And so all good things come to an end. I've made the decision to sell my little piece of paradise on HHI. It wasn't an easy decision to make but it's been on my mind since my kids got a place in Florida. Although I'm sad to say goodbye to the island (at least as a property owner), I'm also looking forward to getting a new place on Florida's emerald coast. I'll be sure to post info about my new property if you're up for an occasional change in vacation locale. 😉

HHI is very committed to wildlife preservation. If you happen to see this fencing, this is what it's about.

Highly recommend a visit to the new Celebration Park that's a short stroll from Mimi's. Took the kiddos on a recent visit & they loved every minute of it. Not shown are the splash pad & The Sandbox Children's Museum.

Great news! The toll will no longer be collected starting on July 1!

The South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT) will stop collecting tolls on Hilton Head Island's Cross Island Parkway at 11:59:59 p.m. on June 30, 2021.

At that time, the bonds issued to build the Cross Island Parkway will be paid off and tolls will be discontinued as required under state law.

Beginning July 1, 2021, signs will be in place advising motorists to use caution and slow down, but not to stop, as they travel through the toll plaza. The plaza will be removed in the coming months by an SCDOT contractor.

Opened in 1998, The Cross Island Parkway is a 7.5 mile, limited access route that connects the William Hilton Parkway (Business US 278) at the north end of the Island with Palmetto Bay Road and the Sea Pines Circle at the south end of the island. The toll is now $1.25 per cash customer and $.75 per Palmetto Pass customer based on a two axle vehicle.

Motorists using Palmetto Pass electronic devices (transponders) to pay their tolls electronically may return them either in person at the plaza office to receive a refund of their current balance. The toll office is located at 4 Marshland Lane, Hilton Head Island, SC 29926. Transponders may also be returned via mail at P.O. Box 5096, Hilton Head Island, SC 29938.

For additional information and answers to frequently asked questions about Palmetto Pass accounts, please visit the website, https://www.crossislandparkway.org, or contact SCDOT’s Customer Service Center at 855-GO-SCDOT (855-467-2368) toll free.

Here's a short tour responding to frequently asked questions. Sorry about the noise on the patio. Of course the AC had to pic that moment to cut on.

Did you know about The Breeze Trolley? It's free in 2021 (but don't forget to take care of your driver. ;-) ) and gives you access to other parts of the island without having to load up in your car, providing easy access to Shelter Cove which is one of the launch points for many boat and adventure tours as well as shopping and dining options!

Looking forward to checking out the new park next week. Have you been there yet?

Lowcountry Celebration Park, a 10-acre site off Pope Avenue near the Coligny Beach parking lot, was completed in December of 2020.
