#Ad with Old Oyster Factory

Welcome back to the Hilton Head Livin Podcast. This week, we are filming on location at Old Oyster Factory overlooking Broad Creek on Hilton Head Island.

In this episode, we talk about some of the biggest events and things to do around Hilton Head and Bluffton this May, including HarborFest fireworks, Mother’s Day ideas, MayFest, live music, family activities, and more.

We also break down why Old Oyster Factory has become one of our favorite waterfront dining spots on the island, especially for lunch. Most visitors only think about coming here for dinner, but locals know there is a completely different experience during the day with the same incredible views, huge oyster selection, and much smaller crowds.

We also talk about:
• Waterfront dining on Hilton Head Island
• Broad Creek kayaking and wildlife
• The best places for large groups and events
• HarborFest fireworks viewing tips
• Hilton Head restaurant recommendations
• Why this feels like the quintessential Hilton Head experience
