Are you looking for theperfect destination? Well, Hilton Head Island, South Carolina is the place to go.Hilton Head is loaded with white sandy beaches, beautiful weather (80 degrees-90degrees in the summer), and plenty of activities for the family.

If youare a golfer, then this is paradise. Hilton Head has one of the top 10 golfcourses in the United States. The Masters Tournament has been held there a halfdozen times and it is very private and relaxing.

If you're not a golfer,don't worry, there are still plenty of other activities. You can go deep-seafishing, parasailing, dolphin watching, scuba diving, or take a relaxing bikeride across the island. If you don't feel like doing anything, then you can justrelax at one of the many Olympic-sized swimming pools.

Ready for dinner?Well, there are plenty of good restaurants. Did I mention that all of the seafoodis freshly caught earlier that day in the Atlantic Ocean?

If you are ananimal lover, there is a wide variety of exotic birds, reptiles (alligators,snakes, and lizards), deer, dolphins and marine life.

I have been toHilton Head Island with my family a couple of times and have to say that it is anall-around perfect family destination for the summer. Believe me when I say thatHilton Head Island is the place to be.
