Neptune Statue


\The Neptune Statue is an iconic symbol of Shelter Cove Harbour & Marina. This towering 12-foot bronze statue, which doubles as a larger-than-life sundial, was designed and installed by sculptor Wayne Edwards and serves as a tribute to Neptune, the Roman god of the sea. It welcomes visitors to this popular waterfront dining and shopping location and is a perfect place to take a photo that captures Hilton Head Island’s connection to the sea.

Out on the Ocean


There are some stunning Instagram-worthy photos to be captured on the Atlantic Ocean surrounding Hilton Head Island. Hop on a sightseeing or nature excursion tour to capture the Island’s fascinating marine wildlife on camera. The waterways that surround Hilton Head have a large and active population of wild Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphins. Need an Instagram model? The dolphins often stop by boats to say hello and pose for pictures!


Another great photo opportunity and fun ocean activity is to join a fishing charter with friends or family. Cast a line for trout, redfish, ladyfish, sharks and much more. Make sure your camera is always on hand to capture the excitement of someone reeling in the catch of the day.
