JEFF HALL The Sea Pines Real Estate Co. 32 Greenwood Drive Hilton Head Island, SC 29928 Scenic Imagery courtesy of Rob Kaufman Photography	Port Royal Plantation Port Royal Historic Port Royal Plantation is Hilton Head Island's only private oceanfront residential community. Located where Port Royal Sound meets the Atlantic Ocean, it was here that Captain William Hilton landed in 1663 and where Union troops came ashore in 1861. Landmarks can be found throughout the plantation dating back to the Civil War. While residents of Port Royal share their plantation with numerous resort guests, there is a distinct separation between resort and residential areas. Many amenities are available for residents-only use. Beach access to over four miles of beautiful beach is available through private beach walks and via the Residents Club, which also features a full range of amenities as described below. For nature lovers, there is an arboretum, consisting of nature paths and identified native plants. Port Royal has 54 holes of championship golf, 16 tennis courts and two championship croquet courses. While club memberships in the Golf Club and Racquet Club are available, they are also open to the public.
