Shipyard Plantation is centrally located on beautiful Hilton Head Island and provides easy access to over 200 restaurants, unique shopping, and world-class golf. The plantation borders 12 miles of white sandy beach and offers bike paths, lagoons, golf courses, tennis courts, and an abundance of natural beauty.

Evian, a popular vacation destination within the plantation, is an oasis of serenity in itself. An old-fashioned gazebo and numerous benches, overlooking the five-acre lake with its sweeping footbridge, provide an unsurpassed view of native wildlife. The nearby Olympic size pool is open year-round, and is adjacent to the six, free and lighted, tennis courts. For the ocean lover, a 15-18 minute walk, or 5-7 minute bike ride, brings you to the Shipyard Plantation Beach Club on the Atlantic Ocean. All beach distances are measured from the center of the complex.
