Considering spending Easter on Hilton Head Island? A great idea! The weather is warm, the island is buzzing with energy, and there are plenty of spots for Easter egg hunts!
In 2026, you’ll find a good mix of Easter egg hunts and other events around the island.
One thing is for sure:
All of them are family-friendly and worth working into your plans!
Easter Sunday feels especially festive in Harbour Town.
On the morning of April 5, 2026, families gather at the Gregg Russell Harbour Town Playground in Sea Pines as kids line up with baskets in hand.
The egg hunt kicks off promptly at 11:00 AM, with colorful eggs hidden throughout the playground and the Easter Bunny making a special appearance. It’s free, open to the public, and will be loads of fun for your young ones.
If your kids prefer a bigger celebration, Shelter Cove Community Park is the place to be on Saturday morning.
Hosted by the Island Recreation Association, the Easter Eggstravaganza runs from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM. The main egg hunt starts right at 11.
This event feels more like a mini festival. Along with the Easter egg hunt, you and the gang can expect bounce houses, food vendors, and plenty of space for kids to burn off energy. It’s free to attend, easy to pair with lunch at the marina, and a sure hit if you like a little action with your Easter plans.
If you’ve got younger children, the Personalized Easter Pails and Portrait Event offers a calmer start to the weekend. On the morning of April 3, 2026, between 9:00 and 11:00 AM, families can stop by the Shops at Sea Pines Center to pick up pre-ordered personalized Easter pails.
The Easter Bunny is on hand for photos, making this more about keepsakes and smiles than racing for eggs. Reservations are required, and time slots are assigned, which keeps things relaxed and unhurried.
Not every Easter tradition on Hilton Head involves eggs. On April 3 and 4, 2026, Sea Pines will host a festive Easter wagon ride through the Forest Preserve, which departs at 11:00 AM.
The ride offers a scenic break from the day’s activities and gives families a chance to slow down and enjoy the island’s natural beauty. Tickets are required, but it’s a lovely way to add something different to your Easter weekend itinerary.
One of the best parts about Easter on Hilton Head is how close everything feels, especially when you’re staying with Beachside Hilton Head. Our vacation rentals place you close to all the top Easter egg hunt spots, so your holiday feels effortless from start to finish.
