The Adventure Ship Playground is guaranteed to capture the hearts of children. It offers a wide range of exciting features, including walking trails, exercise stations, and the engaging Sandbox Interactive Children's Museum. The iconic ship itself is named after the vessel that the renowned explorer Capt. William Hilton embarked upon in 1663 to reach Hilton Head Island. Sailing all the way from Barbados, Capt. Hilton navigated the Adventure to discover new lands, eventually bestowing the island with its name. This historical connection adds a fascinating dimension to the playground's allure.
