Hilton Head Island Rec Center sets opening date, and you get a free week! Here’s when
Hilton Head’s Island Recreation Center is opening with a bang in 2019 by offering a free week of access to the new Carmines Recreation Building, according to a news release.
After two years of construction and a $14 million renovation, the new building will open on Jan. 7.

Memberships to the center will begin on Jan. 15.
If purchased before Jan. 14, a standard year-long fitness membership is $160 instead of $250.
According to the Island Rec Center website, guests may also choose between the following monthly memberships:
- Standard membership for fitness equipment for $25 per month
- Standard pool membership for $25 per month
- Standard membership that includes both fitness equipment and pool use for $40 per month
- All access memberships that include group fitness classes, pool use and fitness equipment for $90 per month
Once the Island Rec Center is open, it will feature a 1/17-mile running and walking track, cardio equipment, cable strength equipment and dumbbells up to 75 pounds, and several basketball courts, Heather Groff, the marketing director for the Island Rec Center said.
The center also renovated outdoor facilities, including lighted tennis courts, resurfaced pickleball courts, new pool offices and a new playground coming in 2019, recreation director Bob Rozek told The Island Packet in October.
