Skull Creek Boathouse: A Bustling Waterfront Spot for Seafood and Southern Classics on Hilton Head Island

Nestled on the banks of Skull Creek, Skull Creek Boathouse is Hilton Head Island's most awarded landmark waterfront restaurant. With a sprawling, tree-shaded outdoor bar and beautiful views of the water, this bustling spot is the perfect place to indulge in fresh seafood and Southern classics.

The restaurant's menu is a mix of sushi, tacos, and seafood, with standout dishes like the surf and turf roll topped with eel and the Fried Fisherman's Feast. The seafood is fresh and the portions are generous, making this a great spot for families and groups. The collard greens are flavorful and a little spicy in a good way, and the chowder and key lime pie are also highlights.

The restaurant's location is one of its greatest assets, with stunning views of Skull Creek and easy access to nearby attractions like Out of the Blue Fishing Charters. The outdoor seats are comfortable, with fans to help keep it semi-fresh, and diners can even see rays and sharks in the water.

Reviews of the restaurant are generally positive, with many praising the food, the atmosphere, and the attentive service. One reviewer noted that the restaurant is a "nice place for a family lunch," while another called it "exactly what we were looking for at Hilton Head." Some reviewers did note that the prices were high and the wait times were long, but most agreed that the food was worth the wait.

Overall, Skull Creek Boathouse is a great choice for anyone looking for fresh seafood and Southern classics in a lively waterfront setting. Whether you're a local or a visitor, this bustling spot is sure to impress.
