Hilton Head Island Gator Locator!
Wondering where to find alligators on Hilton Head Island?
Here are some places where you will find gators on the island or nearby:

|
Port Royal Plantation/Highway 278 - Gators have been sighted from the
bike path near mile marker #6 at the entrance to Port Royal Plantation. Look
for them on the South Side of the entrance on the golf course. There is a
large lagoon just across the fairway where you will find them sunning
themselves.
Jarvis Creek Park - Public park next to Walmart near mile marker #3.
Great dock out into the lake for safe watching up close. Alligators and
turtles will approach the dock looking for a handout. But remember, don't
feed the alligators! Once they lose their fear of humans, they must be
destroyed. If you feed him, you are killing him!
Hilton Head Prep - Inside Sea Pines near the back entrance. Almost
always a gator sunning himself at the lagoons on Lawton Drive at the entrance
to the nature preserve and the school. $5 gate pass to enter Sea Pines.
Sea Pines Nature Preserve - Near the back entrance of Sea Pines inside
the plantation. Ask the security gate how to get there. Fishing Lake usually
has several alligators near the dock. $5 gate pass to enter Sea Pines.
Savannah National Wildlife Refuge - Highway 17 on the way to Savannah. Home
to hundreds of wild gators plus many other endangered or threatened species!
Spring Lake - Inside Hilton Head Plantation at Spring Lake recreation
area. Nice lake with docks for safe observation. Not open to the general
public.
Crossings Park - Just outside the park on Arrow Road there is a small
lagoon beside the street next to the paved bike path. We often see two big
gators sunning here.
