Stinging season
Got hit with an absolutely excruciating sting off coligny beach last week. Days of heavy onshore winds brought in man o wars hidden in the surf. Got a full leg wrap of barbs to remember it by. Be careful out there!

Anybody have any idea where all the smoke came from this afternoon? It’s a crystal clear day…
Looking to speak with anyone who may have been at The Tiki Hut in Hilton Head on Thursday 8/13/26 particularly between approximately 8p-closing.
If you were there that evening and witnessed or noticed an incident involving the police please send me a private message. You may have seen or heard something that could be helpful, even if it didn’t seem significant at the time.
Please feel free to share this post with anyone you know who may have been there. Thank you.
Anyone know why it’s so smokey out tonight? Seems like it came out of nowhere.
Anyone know what’s up. Pretty smoky at the Marriott grande
My partner and I are trying to organize and extended-family gathering for Christmas, and while we'll probably do dinner wherever we're staying, we want to be able to go out or (more likely) order take-out some of the other meals. Are restaurants on/near the island open that time of year? Or is is a "few and far between" situation?
(if it matters, I'm not looking for recommendations, I just want a sense of whether we'll have multiple options to choose from)
Give me your best 3 and why!
Can we fix South Carolina's ugly, standardized boring specialty license plates?
I know this is a deeply serious matter of public importance 😂, but hear me out.
South Carolina has a ton of specialty license plates, but almost all of them are forced into the same generic template: white background, red-and-blue stripe across the top, organization name in a banner, and "South Carolina" in boring Times New Roman font in another banner.
The result is that plates representing completely different organizations, universities, causes, and communities all look basically the same. And they are ugly.
I think we should change that.
South Carolina law requires SCDMV to develop a "basic plate design" for special plates, and SCDMV's current requirements put organizations into the standardized template. So this is a policy choice that can be changed.
The important question is: does standardization for law enforcement actually require every plate to have the same visual design? No! Look at Georgia and North Carolina.
Let professional designers and the sponsoring organizations determine the actual visual design. That would mean a USC plate could look like USC. A conservation plate could actually look like a conservation plate. A military plate could have a distinctive military design. A charitable organization could have an attractive plate that actually represents what it does.
They would still be unmistakably South Carolina plates and meet all the technical requirements.
Do you agree?
If enough people are interested, we could put together a specific proposal for SCDMV and the Legislature rather than just complaining about plates on Reddit.

anyone know what's going on with OT HHI? seems like they cancel so many classes now. are they not paying their coaches enough?
I’m a chocolate cake enjoyer. Which restaurant or bakery has an amazing slice of cake?
Couple of vehicles being delivered - likely on semi. Any ideas on the best on-island parking area to use so as not to annoy anyone/break any rules?
I am going to be on the island for the first game of the year and I’m looking for a place to watch. Any UGA bars in the area? If not, what are the best places to hang out and watch games during football season?
my aunt passed away a few months ago and left me her place on Hilton Head. at first I thought wow free beach house. but it's turned into a nightmare. needs everything. new roof, new AC, new windows, new kitchen. basically a full gut job. I live in Atlanta and I can't afford to fix this place up. I've been paying property taxes and insurance on it and it's killing me.
I've been looking into selling .
has anyone here sold a property on Hilton Head that needed work? how did it go?
