April is arguably one of the best months to visit Hilton Head Island. The weather is warm and pleasant, the beaches come to life with more visitors (but not so much to feel overcrowded), and the island exudes an exciting air as golf enthusiasts come to the island to hit the greens.
Here are some ways to fully immerse yourselves in the RBC Heritage tournament, and experience this exciting event in true Hilton Head Island fashion.
1. SCORE TICKETS!
RBC Heritage will take place this year between April 15th and April 20th. The original purse of $100,000 ($770,000 in today's dollars) has jumped to $20 million. With a growing fan base, you will want to secure your tickets early. This event will sell-out. There are single-day tickets available or various packages to choose from. Children ages 15 and under are admitted free with a ticketed adult.

2. PLAY *ALMOST* SIDE-BY-SIDE WITH SOME OF THE WORLD’S BEST ATHLETES!
If you could not score one of the limited passes for the tournament, you can still hit the green by staying -and playing- at the Tournament’s venue: Sea Pines Resort. There are still some rentals available, but they won’t last for too long. Contact us at 1-843-686-6100 or visit our website to book a vacation rental with an almost birds-eye view of all the golf action.

3. TAKE A LESSON… OR TWO!
Staying in Sea Pines? You're steps from the golf action and your game improvement! Not only will you be close to all the excitement of professional golf, but you'll also have the chance to elevate your own skills at The Golf Learning Center at Sea Pines. With a team of PGA-certified instructors, this top-tier facility offers personalized instruction to help you fine-tune your tee shots, master your approach, and sharpen your game. Whether you choose a one-, two-, or three-day golf school, you'll walk away with valuable techniques to help lower your scores and boost your confidence on the course. Get ready to swing smarter, play better and maybe even outdrive your friends. Let's go, golfer!
