The waters around Hilton Head Island, SC, are home to many Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphins.  The usually calm inland waters of the Calibogue Sound, Port Royal Sound, and the many tidal creeks among the salt marshes offer many opportunities for viewing these remarkable creatures.

If you should choose to rent a boat and approach dolphins, please remember that dolphins are protected by the Marine Mammal Protection Act (further reading).  Private boaters are advised to avoid steep fines and risks to dolphins by following the Dolphin Smart program.
