Newhall Audubon Preserve-Hilton Head Island
Locals and visitors on Hilton Head Island who are looking for a quiet encounter with nature will find this experience at the Newhall Audubon Preserve. It is a 50 acre park located on Palmetto Bay Road. It is owned and operated by the Hilton Head Island Audubon Society, which offers weekly guided bird walks.
The gardens have markers identifying flower and plants
Volunteer workdays keep the paths clear making it easy to find your way through the woods. The park also has direction signs for guidance.
Interpretive panels are placed throughout the park. The information describes the nature of the land and habitants of the area.
The visit this past week did not get me a glimpse of “Big Al”, but I was lucky enough to get a glimpse of this yellow belly slider.
The trails are easy for walking, and dogs are allowed. There are bench’s around the pond, parking at the entrance, and no restrooms.
There is not an entrance fee but donations are accepted.
