Hilton Head Island Beach Renourishment
The Town of Hilton Head Island’s next beach renourishment project is scheduled to take place from fall 2025 through spring 2026 and will include Palmetto Dunes. This island-wide effort is part of a regular maintenance program designed to combat erosion by dredging sand from offshore and pumping it onto the beach. The Palmetto Dunes portion of the project falls under Phase II, currently planned for November 13, 2025 through February 14, 2026.
Property owners should expect intermittent, temporary disruptions to sections of the beach during this time. While construction zones will rotate and be closed off for safety, the beach will remain open and accessible outside of active work areas. This renourishment is critical to preserving the width and quality of our shoreline—supporting recreation, protecting beachfront properties, and maintaining storm resilience. It’s also part of a larger, long-term strategy to ensure Hilton Head’s beaches remain healthy and enjoyable for years to come. Click here to learn more.
