National Bike Month at Palmetto Dunes

It’s the simple things in life, like a scenic bike ride under the canopy of angel oak trees in Palmetto Dunes Resort, that can make your Hilton Head vacation extra special. There are so many great ways to celebrate bike riding here with Hilton Head Outfitters bike rentals, especially in May during National Bike Month.

Bike Month

The League of American Bicyclists encourages a bike friendly America all year long and during the month of May, National Bike Month, you can participate in National Ride a Bike Day on May 4, Bike to Work Week May 12 – 18, or Bike to Work Day on May 16! Or just change up a simple part of your daily driving routine with a bike ride. We suggest biking to get your cup of coffee at the Palmetto Dunes General Store if you’re inside Palmetto Dunes Resort and then head to the beach!

Hilton Head Island Bike Safety

Bike Signage

While it may be easy to get lost in the beauty of the ride, with the increased amount of vehicular and bike traffic in the community, please use caution when driving (or biking!) to keep Palmetto Dunes safe for residents and visitors to enjoy. Please remember:

  • Cars have the right-of-way and bicyclists must yield to traffic.

  • Bicyclists must use bike paths.

  • Bikes ride to the right, pass on the left.

  • Bikes must use lights at night.
