Golfer Travel Destination - Hilton Head Island

cecil on November 12th, 2008

I was wondering one day that since Eastern and South-eastern parts of USA are facing Atlantic ocean, there must be lots of nice beaches along the coastline which are worth travelling if I have the budget, one day :) . I was right on this. After watching one of the travel documentary over TV recommending the top 10 beaches in US and surfing around net that I realised there are in fact lots of them which are brilliant for travel but unfortunately very little of them are widely publicized in Malaysia. Apart from the previous 2 destinations along the same coastline, I found another wellknown beach city, Hilton Head Island which is great for golfers.

Beautiful beach of Hilton Head

Hilton Head is an island located in South Carolina, USA, 20 miles (32 km) north of Savannah, Georgia. It is a popular vacation destination with over 2 Millions travelers all over the world visiting Hilton Head each and every years. Travelers love the island because of its eco-friendly environment with majority of lands are still occupied by trees and wildlife. 

Harbour Town
One of the biggest attraction of Hilton Head is its beautiful golf courses. There are over ten championship courses around there including the highly reputable PGA course at Sea Pine Resort where US PGA tour players play there every year. Golfers around the world are attracted to this place for a golf vacation where varieties of Hilton Head vacation rental packages are easily available. I was first impressed by Hilton Head when I watch the PGA game over TV.

Hilton Head South Carolina is the home of wildlife, alligators, deer, Loggerhead Sea Turtles, hundreds of species of birds, and dolphins are still living here. Most natural properties of Hilton Head island are still very well preserved by the local government of Carolina. Many of the Hilton Head island rentals are occupied by visitors who come here for wildlife admiration and photography which is especially tempting to me :)
Dolphin
Basically, weather in Hilton Head is temperate and breezing with 4 seasons in a year. Spring and autumn are being the most dominant seasons with an average temperature of 20 Degree Celcius. Every year there are millions of visitors rushing to this beautiful island and staying into one of those ocean front villa and private owned homes via the Hilton Head rentals. There are so many activities you can plan for during your holidays here from sea to mountain hiking, from shopping to clubbing at night! Our travel agencies in Malaysia should put more attentions to these gorgeous beaches instead of those over-publicized, crowded popular destinations in US. - Travel Feeder.

Travel By Photo - Key West Island, Florida

cecil on October 31st, 2008

Beautiful SunsetMy new toy really got me crazy for the past week. All my leisure has been spent on photo shooting, camera setting, feature testing, trying hard to learn more on photography by reading photo magazine and also surfing net for beautiful photo shots by other experts (regretfully little on blogging :( ). While searching for great photos, I found this great shot from a great city which I have missed out so far and it is Key West Island in the southernmost part of Florida, US. Key West is a vacation destination for energetic and sporty travelers who love watersport and offshore fishing.  

Sunset at Key West 

Off Shore Fishing at Key WestThis island is only about 4 miles (6.4 km) long and 2 miles (3.2 km) wide. Despite its relatively small size, Key West Island is so fascinating that 1st time visitors who come here could never imagine that so much things could be done here; From land activities of historical site seeing, wandering about aquarium, museum, shopping mall to water activities of scuba diving, snorkeling, sailing, kayaking and fishing. Key West Fishing is especially interesting to me where offshore fishing guarantees for successful returns with an abundance of fish such as marlin, sailfish, mahi-mahi, tuna, wahoo, cobia, and king mackerel if you know their names.

Duval Street

Having tropical weather all year round with very little rainfall, any time of the year is perfect for a vacation on this very special island. For me, blue sky and bright sun certainly interests me most. Sunset cruise is also the main tourists attraction where vacation travelers could admire the beautiful sunset on board with a drink and relax while looking out for dolphins, turtles, and sea birds. There are also celebrations being held regularily at Mallory Square where cruise are docked and Duval Street where is home for famous dining and fashion outlets.

Mallory Square

From photos that I extracted from other Key West information websites, it shows that Key West is the perfect place to take lots of photos with my new toy(I’m so crazy about photo taking nowadays albeit quantities are more than quality :( ). I’m so tempted to visit there perhaps as a feeder trip to my dream vacation to Miami’s South Beach, one day! - Travel Feeder.

large_1526dsc013121.jpgSome might not have heard about Sea Isle City before, me either. I got to know this island city from the recent tropical storm disaster (Hana) that hit most of the South Eastern part of USA’s Atlantic Ocean’s coastline, started worst in Haiti and weakening towards North Carolina, without hitting Sea Isle City. Sea Isle City is one of the most popular family travel destination in Cape May County, New Jersey of United States. It is located  along the Atlantic Ocean, east of USA and not water. Though it is widely considered as an island city, Sea Isle actually shares its land on Ludlam Island with neighbor, Strathmere.

Sea Isle BeachWith more than 30% of residents being Irish ancestry, Sea Isle City is a beach town with most of its housing used for vacation rentals and second homes. It has a 1.5 mile beachfront promenade and several arcades, shops, restaurants and bars in the center of town. Visitors from all over the world come here for its serene environment. You can stay in one of those beach front bangalows, relaxing under the beautiful sun while kids are having fun on the beach and enjoying sun setting at the same time. It is just a perfect holiday destination for families. For those who are adventurous can even drive down to the nearby Atlantic casinos for some luck try!

Sea Isle CityIf you are wondering any city rentals Sea Isle travel agency could help arranging accomodation in Sea Isle, FREDA Real Estate Agency located in Landis Avenue of Sea Isle City is one of the trusted company in the city. It serves Sea Isle City Rentals and Sale needs since 1955.

For your information, many of the properties there are actually second homes to expariates. You can log on to Freda’s website for more information. If you have any other family travel destination to share with other travelers, do let me know by commenting this post. Cheers! - Travel Feeder.
