Other weekend ideas
Head to the beach
Not able to make an event? Heading to the beach and relaxing for your Labor Day weekend can be fun for the whole family. Hilton Head Island has 12 miles of white-sand beaches, and the Lowcountry as a whole has a large quantity of beautiful, unique beaches to choose from.
Outdoor sporting activities
Favor some healthy, family competition? The Lowcountry is known for its award-winning golf courses. Set up a tee time, and play one of the many courses available to choose from. Not a golfer? Mini golf, tennis or pickleball are also popular choices that are sure to bring a fun time and memories that will last.
Find a nearby happy hour location
For an adult group, find a local happy hour spot. Many local establishments offer happy hour specials and live music for over-21s to spend those end-of-summer Lowcountry evenings. Hilton Head Distillery, Poseidon, Aunt Chiladas and The Sandbar are just a few of the many places to enjoy an evening beverage in the surrounding area for this Labor Day weekend.
