Windmill Harbour

As a private residential community on the north end of Hilton Head Island, Windmill Harbour is a cozy place to live, radiating a style of its own. Immediately after the J. Wilton Graves Bridge onto Hilton Head, Windmill Harbour is situated on the right, adjacent to the Intercoastal Waterway and the Calibogue Sound.

Within its 172 acres, there are perhaps a dozen neighborhoods, each with its own character. Elegant estate-sized homes, patio homes, townhouses and attractive villas follow architectural themes prevalent in Charleston’s historic district as they blend together along tree-lined streets. It’s no wonder developer J. R Richardson’s vision for a private residential community for boaters as well as non-boaters has been deemed a brilliant success.

At the core of the community is its most well known feature- a sheltered 15.5 acre yacht basin, twice the size of Harbour Town. The basin was carefully engineered with a unique lock system to insulate its community from tidal changes and the wakes of the Intercoastal Waterway’s traffic.

However, residents do not have to be mariners, nor do boaters have to live in the community to secure a boat slip.

Boaters appreciate complete harbourmaster services, a private fuel pump dock and pump-out station, fixed concrete docks, around the clock security, and direct access to the deep waters of the Intercoastal Waterway and the Calibogue Sound.
