About Sea

Pines

Sea Pines, located between Harbour Town and South Beach Marina, is a resort and residential Hilton Head Island neighborhood with maritime forest trails and Atlantic beachfront. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Harbour Town Yacht Basin and the Harbour Town Lighthouse, where marina docks, galleries, and waterfront dining set a polished, coastal pace. Low-slung coastal homes and villas sit behind live oaks and palmettos, with golf fairways and lagoons shaping the street grid. Harbour Town Golf Links and the Sea Pines Forest Preserve define the outdoor rhythm, from tee times to boardwalk walks. The Salty Dog Cafe anchors South Beach with a casual, salty-marina scene. Bike paths stitch together beaches, stables, and village-style pockets.

Planned Development Mixed-Use District

The purpose of the Planned Development Mixed-Use District is to recognize the existence within the Town of certain unique Planned Unit Development s that are greater than 250 acres in size. Generally, these PUDs have served to establish the special character of Hilton Head Island as a high quality resort and residential community.
