Hilton Head Frequently Asked Questions

We will send you detailed information about the Adventure in a Pre-Departure Packet once you register.

What is the weather going to be like?
The average high temperature in May is about 70 degrees. The average low temperature is about 60 degrees. So, be prepared for warm and pleasant temperatures! While Hilton Head does get a decent amount of rain, most of it falls in the summer months.

Which time of the year is best to go there?
Both the spring and fall are good times to be on Hilton Head. The summer can get too hot and be too crowded with tourists.

What is the best way to get to the Camp and where do we meet?
We will meet you on Hilton Head at our hotel, if you are driving or arriving early. We will meet you at the airport in Savannah, Georgia if you are flying into the area. There is also an airport on Hilton Head itself but it generally has higher airfares.

What should I do if I want to extend my vacation in the area?
We spend five days on Hilton Head. However, with its magnificent beaches it is certainly worthwhile to extend your vacation by staying an extra night or two on the island. Savannah, Georgia is our gateway city and a beautifully restored Civil War-era town. For a more active option in the area, check out some of the other barrier islands by kayak or bicycle.

What ability level do I really need to be for this tour?
The Hilton Head Skate Camp is rated for Beginners . If you have never even tried on inline skates but want to learn, this is the Adventure for you. If you are already skating but working on mastering that heel brake or other techniques, this is the perfect way to do so.

For what type of people would you recommend this trip?
The Hilton Head Skate Camp is designed to teach adults to inline skate. It is appropriate for people who have never tried the sport and for those trying to improve their beginner skills. Children are welcome in the company of adults. You do not need to be in great shape to attend this Camp. However, you should be in basic physical health. Some tests you should be able to pass: stand up without getting help; walk for several miles; fall on your hands and knees onto the grass from a bent knee standing position.

My spouse (friend, etc) wants to join me at Camp but doesn't want to participate in the instruction. Is that possible?
While we naturally encourage everyone to participate in our skating instruction, we do have a non-instruction option for spouses or friends who just won't put on skates. This option includes everything but the skating instruction (local transportation, alternative activities, lodging, meals, etc), as our goal is to include non-skating participants in the group fun.  There are other activities to do on Hilton Head such as biking, golfing, and tennis and we will provide this information.
