The City has two main commercial districts, one in the Sea Pines Resort area and another in the town center. A series of resorts and private gated communities are located at the island's north end. These facilities contribute greatly to the economy and help contribute to a warm and inviting community.

Tourists will be on vacation, but residents will be happy to see them. One of the features that residents enjoy is year-round access and numerous events held throughout Hilton Head Island. The local economy depends strongly on tourism so that Hilton Head Island can handle bad business conditions due to bad weather.

The city council created a community event and festival series to make their island even more appealing and memorable. The first was the Fall Festival, which is held each fall and features a wide range of entertainment.

Small beachfront parks are scattered throughout Hilton Head Island, and several larger parks hold special events or concerts throughout the year. Riverside Park was renovated after Hurricane Hugo wreaked havoc on the island in 1989. This park is popular for its recreation at Christmas and for public events that are held at the city council compound.

The Hilton Head, Community Action Committee, hosts the Yardfest each year. The event flips a coin and then divvies up the proceeds between participating organizations, all dedicated to helping Hilton Head Island residents.
