Hilton Head Island Zip Codes

Hilton Head Island has two zip codes for street addresses. 29928 covers the south end and most of the island, and 29926 covers the north end. If you are writing “Hilton Head Island, SC” on a form and are not sure which to add, the zip is on your deed, your last utility bill or a rental confirmation.

The shaded map shows which zip covers which part of the island, drawn from more than 700 island addresses. Broad Creek is the dividing line. South of it, from Sea Pines to Shelter Cove, is 29928. North of it is 29926, including Hilton Head Plantation, Spanish Wells, Indigo Run, the airport and Mitchelville, except the ocean side from Folly Field up through Port Royal Plantation, which stays 29928. Around Port Royal Plaza on Mathews Drive the two zips sit side by side, so for a house or condo near the line, check your own address rather than a neighbor’s. For the two biggest communities, see Hilton Head Plantation (29926) and Sea Pines (29928).

Sea Pines does not have a zip code of its own. Every Sea Pines address, from Harbour Town to the Sea Pines Center, is Hilton Head Island, SC 29928, and the Sea Pines post office at 71 Lighthouse Road is 29928 too. Shipyard, next door, is 29928 as well. For the community itself, see Sea Pines and Shipyard.

You will also see 29925 and 29938 on Hilton Head Island mail. Both are PO Box zips for the island, not street-address zips, so they do not locate a house or condo. Some businesses and rental companies print a PO Box with 29938 or 29925 as their mailing address. Send deliveries to a street address in 29928 or 29926, and use the zip a business prints on its own invoice when you are mailing a payment. The island’s post offices page lists the three offices.

Hilton Head Island’s area codes are 843 and 854. 854 is an overlay on the same territory as 843, so a new number can have either one and every call needs the area code, even a local one.
