Surrounded by waterways and a beautiful ecosystem, it's easy to see why Hilton Head has so many amazing fishing options. Whether you prefer freshwater, saltwater, or both, you'll be delighted at some of the area's most popular fishing spots. In-shore fishing is great for beginners and can be found in Jarvis Creek Park and the lagoons in Palmetto Dunes. Want to venture offshore? There are plenty of Charter Fishing Rentals that offer trips to the best spots. Nearshore charters between 5 and 25 miles from the coast explore the artificial reefs which draw various species of fish. Depending on the season, you'll find Grouper, Snapper, King Mackerel, Cobia, and others. Deep-Sea charters are for more seasoned anglers and offer trips that take you 40 miles from the coast where Amberjack, Triggerfish and Snapper call home. A South Carolina fishing license is required and may be obtained here.
