Rent a Boat in Hilton Head Island, SC

Salt-marsh creeks, wild-horse barrier islands, and sunsets behind Harbour Town’s red-and-white lighthouse make Hilton Head a Lowcountry dreamscape where dolphin escorts are almost guaranteed.

What to know

The most popular boat rental styles on Hilton Head include:

  • Bay boats & skiffs for flood-tide redfish tailing across spartina grass.
  • Pontoons & sunset cruisers for Calibogue Sound dolphin loops and sand-dollar hunts on Daufuskie.

Huge tide swings create fast currents—hire a captain to dodge shoals and oyster rakes.

Safety regulations

  • Boater-ed rule: Solo operators born after Jul 1 2007 need an SC boater card.
  • Life jackets: Kids < 12 wear PFDs on boats < 16 ft underway.
