Shipyard Plantation



Shipyard Plantation is a gated residential community located on the South End of Hilton Head Island. Shipyard was the second plantation to be developed for residential purposes, and much like its Sea Pines predecessor, Shipyard was developed with special consideration given to complementing rather than competing with nature.

There are approximately 2,100 units in Shipyard Plantation with an unusual combination of resort, residential and commercial interests. Nestled among the trees are twenty-seven holes of golf, twenty tennis courts, a 338 room beachfront hotel, a world-class heath spa, 255 residential lots, approximately 400 interval ownership units and 1,000 condominium units.

Shipyard Plantation has two convenient access points, one on Highway 278 and the other on Pope Avenue. This makes Shipyard one of the most accessable locations on the island. Coligny Plaza is less than one mile and there are restaurants, stores, banks, movie theaters, a local hardware store, and a post office close by. Shipyard residents love their convenient location and the simplicity of the plantation.
