Hunting Island

PARK ADVISORY

The Nature Center will be closed on Saturday, April 19, as our staff will be attending an Earth Day Event at the Port Royal Farmer's Market. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The Hunting Island Lighthouse is currently closed for repairs, and construction is underway. On weekdays, equipment noise may impact this area of the park. We apologize for this inconvenience and thank you for your understanding as we work to restore this historic feature for public access and enjoyment!

The Lighthouse Gift Shop is temporarily closed. Please visit us at the Campground Gift Shop!

We now have a track chair available for visitors with mobility impairments, thanks to the Ford Bronco Wild Fund. Visitors are encouraged to call the park to reserve the track chair at least 48 hours in advance to ensure availability. There is no additional charge to use the track chair, but a Park Passport or park admission is required for entry for all visitors. Read more about this new track chair, here.
