Lowcountry Goes High: ZipLine Hilton Head
Flying over and thru the trees for about 2 hours of zipping thrills, overlooking the water, marshes and boats, learning about local ecology and laughing with your zipline group and guides…welcome to ZipLine hilton head, the Island’s new destination at Broad Creek Marina Land and Water Adventures, opening April 17. The 2011 South Carolina Visitors’ Guide noted that today’s modern family should “start with the zip…to tear tweeting, texting teens away from their electronics and into family fun.”
ZipLine hilton head features 8 ziplines including a dual cable 900 ft. racing zipline finale; 3 suspended sky bridges; and an aerial spiral staircase, all connected to 8 tree platforms and 4 towers, with heights to 75 ft. It is the only Zipline tour within a 250 mile radius of HHI and is located on Broad Creek Marina’s 15-acre waterfront site.
Broad Creek Marina Adventures already features kayaking, parasailing, dolphin nature tours and the popular Up the Creek Pub & Grill, chosen by “Southern Living Weekends” as 1 of 4 Island restaurants to visit. Additional outdoor eco-activities planned for summer 2012 include a ropes course, a bungee trampoline, a rock climbing wall and a Lil’ Zipper for youngsters.
ZipLine Hilton Head reflects the boom in both eco-tourism and ziplining around the world. Two guides lead groups up to 8; ages 10 and older; weight requirements from 80 lbs. to 250 lbs. Zipline tours run 365 days a year; initial price is $89 per person; discounts for active military; gift certificates available.
