As a local i approve of this and if anything i would add dough boys for pizza/chessesteak #HHIFR #truck6 #wedoitall

i’ll be there in 3 weeks and i hope it’s as good as the last time i went

If you want to step back to the past and the Grove Plantation take the tour at the oldest part of the plantation which is still as it was not far away from Gaylord's.

Thank you! Going July 12. Can't wait.

Can you share the name of the restaurant that you referred to as "Low Country Boil"? I couldn't find a restaurant with that exact name.

When I’m not eating seafood we go to Giuseppi’s a minimum of 3 times the week we’re there. Usually get the original wedgie on the way in

Thank you! I did say that! Thank you for catching it!

Great video. As a North Carolina native, I learned some things. Haha! I lived in Raleigh for six years, and I do wish I’d taken time to visit the museums. One note: I believe you said y’all went to Chapel Hill to see the Duke campus. Duke is located in Durham. 😊 Duke and UNC-Chapel Hill are deep rivals! Really deep. 😮😂

HoloHolo grill is NOT by Waipouli beach resort! It is by Koloa Landing resort in Poipu.

Awesome video! Hope you had a great trip! Had a very similar experience in Kauai - See for yourself. Cheers! -Tyler

don’t listen to this woman she is untrustworthy and has horrible taste in food and coffee.

WOULD BE NICE IF YOU TALKED ABOUT PRICES.

Your channel sucks give it up

Video is stupid

We live in Bluffton but when we have guests from out of state, they all want to go to Skull Creek.

They are not cobblestone ..educate yourself

Was there just recently stayed at grand hyatt, really nice. Them went to Princeville to 1 Hotel and that was fantastic. Little bit of rain but nothing compared to last time in princville when it rained 50 plus inches in 24 hours. Brutal but still had fun.

Turn. Your. Phone. Horizontal. Jesus Christ.

I was living on Hilton Head Island in 1975. Nobody even heard of Hilton Head Island in those days. We had no traffic, no street lights and no police (not needed).There were mornings where I felt like I had he whole Island to myself. My rent was $150 a month. Spent my days at the beach and worked nights at the Plantation Cub at Sea Pines.

Thank you, I’m from the Midwest an am visiting Charleston next weekend

I lived on the northern side of Hilton head I don’t remember what the restaurant was called but the crab cake there was awsome

SO SICK OF THE LOCALS CONSTANTLY BEGGING FOR HAND OUTS !!

Thank you for the video! Very helpful in planning a few spots to eat.

Your videos are the best I've seen, & trust me I've watched allot! Thank You❤

What a great video, Thank you!❤

😂 blow hole funny story. Thank you for sharing your adventures

We visited HHI last year for the first time and really loved it. So we rented a house for all of February 2024. That time solidified our love for HHI and we bought a place in Sea Pines. Winters, here we come! 😊

Tha k you for sharing we are going Tuesday with our daughter. Your view looked great! I'm. Hoping mine is as nice💓☘️

Great info! I too have same issue with pineapple. Found somewhere online to rinse it with lukewarm water before eating. I was amazed it worked!

If you have the time, try to get over to the western side of the island as there are some great little local hole-in-the-wall locations. If you want to spend a small amount of money for massive amounts of good food, look up Mark's Place. There's also Kalaheo Cafe & Coffee Company (amazing breakfasts). And then there is Jojo's Shave Ice and Gina's Anykine Grinds Cafe, both in Waimea.

Loved Kauai! Absolutely fantastic. We got some spectacular footage and more importantly created amazing memories!

Great video! I’m from NC originally, but I’ve only casually driven through Charleston. 😅 Hubby is from Chicago and wants to visit Charleston. We hope to visit soon. Your tips will be a great resource. Thank you! Did you visit in the fall? Is that the season you’d recommend?

Great information. Thank you!

We’ll be there next month.

🙌🏻

The Hanalei Dolphin by the Hanalei river has a wide selection of fresh caught fish and is a bit pricey. There was a Dolphin Poipu but it appears to be closed. The Sleeping Giant Grill (formerly Kilauea Fish Market), located BEHIND the Coconut Market Place next to Islander on the Beach Resort, is a moderate restaurant with fresh fish. Another moderate fish restaurant is the Kilauea Fish Market located in a small shopping center in Kilauea. The last time we were there a pickup pulled up with a just caught ahi.

You missed four great fresh fish restaurants, all much better quality than Dukes.

Love the video and I have done most of these plus other excursions on this fabulous island. The whole vibe is very laid back with few crowds.

We've visited 18 times since 1997, so we know the areas of the island that are accessible to the public quite well. I totally agree with you: the ice cream at Hilton Head Ice Cream Company is unquestionably the best I've had anywhere in the world (it's the Banana Pudding ice cream for me!). There's one place on the island I absolutely love that rarely gets mentioned in KZbin videos: the Jazz Corner in the Village at Wexford. It's not a cheap date by any means, but we plan in advance and budget the necessary funds for an expensive but extraordinary night out (typically birthday or anniversary), because it's one of the top 100 jazz clubs in the world with superb Cajun cuisine and top-drawer musicians. My only regret is that the room is too dark to get quality photos of the magnificent food presentations. And the owner always greets us at the door like family even though we are only there one night a year. It's clear that she remembers us by the way she interacts with us, even though she doesn't know us by name. As an avid birder, I've gotten some incredible photos of osprey, herons, egrets, bald eagles, wood storks, spoonbills, pelicans, and many other species that inhabit the island. Fish Haul Beach Park, Jarvis Creek Park, and Pinckney Island National Wildlife Refuge are my favorite public places to visit for birding (and all three are free). Also, I get up early every morning and go to the beach for the spectacular sunrise photos over the Atlantic Ocean. You hit some good high points on the island. I saw several of our favorite restaurants in your video. Our top three are The Crazy Crab at Jarvis Creek, the Black Marlin Bayside Grill at Palmetto Bay Marina, and Skull Creek Boathouse. We always intend to visit them when on the island, plus other favorites such as Marley's Shrimp and Burger Shack, Up The Creek Pub, Bullie's BBQ, San Miguel's Mexican, The Sea Shack, Harbour Town Bakery in Sea Pines, The French Bakery in Shelter Cove, One Hot Mama's, and others. I've had bad experiences at two specific restaurants, but I'm not in the habit of taking cheap shots online; I just don't mention them by name. We've stayed in various rental properties in Palmetto Dunes, Barrington Park, Deer Island in Sea Pines, South Forest Beach, and Villamare. It's hard to choose what to do when you only have a week on the island, because invariably you leave out some things you later regret omitting. We always intend to get out on the water somehow, whether for a dolphin cruise, a sunset dinner cruise, crabbing, or on those little two-seater catamarans. And this past May we discovered the Salty Dog picnic boat (!), which took our family for a wonderful private sunset cruise on Calibogue Sound past Daufuskie Island and into the quiet backwaters north of Daufuskie, with delicious menu items from the popular Salty Dog Cafe. It's one of the most memorable nights of my life. The Island Explorer boat tours that leave from the Old Oyster Factory (pictured in your video) on Broad Creek get you up close and personal with the sights, sounds, and scenes of the island. And the Island Skiff Adventure Tours leaving from Broad Creek Marina are an ideal way to see dolphins sometimes from no further away than an arm's length or two. To spot *BIG* alligators (keep your distance!), check the pond adjacent to Lawton Stables in Sea Pines, or the large pond in the middle of the golf course in Shipyard Plantation. The only downsides are (1) it is a two-day, 16-hour drive for us to get there, and (2) a week's vacation is at least 25-30% MORE expensive since the pandemic (our favorite rental property in Palmetto Dunes has DOUBLED in price from 2018 to 2023, so that's no longer an option for us). In my opinion, there is a lot of price gouging and profiteering going on as a result of the pandemic, just like the rest of America. Having said that, if you do some online research you can still find affordable rentals that are close to the beach. For me it's still definitely worth the trip. My only advice to first-time visitors is this: instead of resort hotels, choose a rental home or condo. It's a much more personable and enjoyable experience that makes you feel like you live there instead of just being a visitor. We use Island Getaway Rentals on New Orleans Road to book our vacation each year. There's so much more I could say. Thanks for your good video! PS. There is no conflict of interest here with any of the businesses mentioned by name. I don't know anyone on Hilton Head Island other than a couple of birders I've met who are in the local Audubon group, and no one who lives there or promotes it has paid me to say nice things about the island (or ever even heard of me, for that matter). These are simply my personal observations after 25+ years of visiting our family's favorite vacation spot in America.

We have been to Kauai over 40 times! Love the Hyatt!!!

Which month were you there? Any suggestions as to when would be a good time to visit these places?

What is the name of this culinary farmers market?

Can the south shore, Falls and Waimea canyon be done in one day?

We will be staying here this summer! So excited! What a great informative video. Thank you!

Hi

This is the most comprehensive video about Kauai I've seen so far. Plan to visit these place in my trip to Kauai

Headed to Kauai in Feb 2024 (staying in Lawai Resort near Poipu), and this video was VERY helpful!! Hopefully the lines won't be quite as long in the winter months.

SHHHHHH SHES DEFROSTING AS WE SPEAK

I'm so happy to see Tahiti Nui is still there. We ate there in 1988 and 1995 and are about to return to Kauai next year. Thanks for the video.

Thorough and pleasant … I just subscribed
