Coast Restaurant at the Sea Pines Beach Club
Oceanfront dining at the Sea Pines Beach Club
Coast is the oceanfront restaurant at the Sea Pines Beach Club, on the first floor of the building with the ocean at its back door. Coast Hilton Head is a seafood place, and it runs all day: lunch, dinner, a raw bar, and a wraparound beach bar where swimsuits are fine. It is operated by The Sea Pines Resort.
It is also searched for as Coast Hilton Head Island, Coast Sea Pines, Coast at Sea Pines, and Sea Pines Coast, and those are all the same restaurant. There are other places called Coast elsewhere, so this page means the one at the beach club. Because the Beach Club is inside gated Sea Pines, getting to Coast means passing the gate; see Sea Pines for the rest of the plantation, and Sea Pines restaurants for the other places to eat.
Coast Restaurant Hilton Head: What to Expect
What Coast serves is fresh, local seafood eaten with a view of the water. The kitchen leans on Lowcountry seafood with some Southern touches and Caribbean-inspired flavor, and the raw bar carries a rotating oyster selection and peel-and-eat shrimp. There are also burgers and sandwiches, so not everyone at the table has to want seafood.
The mood is relaxed. Indoor dining asks for shirts and shoes, and the Beach Bar on the lower deck is where beach attire is welcome. The resort says the restaurant was named one of the Top 10 Beach Bars in the South on Southern Living’s 2025 reader-selected list. The dressier room in the building is upstairs, and it is a different space (see below).
Coast Hilton Head Island Menu
The resort publishes a separate menu for each part of the operation: lunch, dinner, a kids menu for ages 12 and under, a beach service menu, dessert menus, and the Ocean Lounge menu. If you are looking for the Sea Pines Beach Club menu, this is it, and the dinner and restaurant menus live on the resort’s Coast menu page. We do not list dish prices here because the menu changes; the resort’s page is the current one.
Across those menus you will find the raw bar with oysters and seafood towers, starters, entrées, and desserts. Lunch runs until 4 p.m. and dinner starts at 4. Menus posted on booking and review sites can lag the resort’s, so check its page before you plan around a particular dish.
Coast Oceanfront Dining: Indoors, Patio and Beach Bar
Coast Oceanfront Dining has three settings. Indoors is the sit-down dining room. The patio is outside on the sand side of the building, and dogs are welcome at patio tables. The wraparound Beach Bar is the casual option, with specialty drinks and frozen cocktails, and it is where beachgoers stop in between swims. In season there is live music, listed by the resort from 5 to 8 p.m.
Coast Sea Pines: Hours, Address and Reservations
Coast Sea Pines is open every day, from 11:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. as of September 2026, with lunch until 4 p.m. and dinner from 4 p.m. The address is 87 N Sea Pines Drive, Hilton Head Island, SC 29928, and the phone is 843-842-1888.
The resort recommends reservations, which you make through Resy. Walk-ins are welcome and are seated first come, first served, so wait times vary, and a reservation is the safer way to go at dinner in the busy months.
The Coast Restaurant at the Beach Club, and the Ocean Lounge Upstairs
The Sea Pines Beach Club is a building with more than one place to eat in it, and the Coast restaurant at the Beach Club is the ground floor. Upstairs is the Ocean Lounge, which is for guests 21 and over, asks for resort casual dress, and has a bourbon list. The two share a building and are different rooms with their own menus, so a table at one is not a table at the other. Both are covered on the Sea Pines Beach Club page.
The Beach Club also has an event space, the Atlantic Room, which the resort lists as holding up to 130 guests for receptions and weddings.
Gate Fee and Getting There
The Sea Pines gate fee is $10 per day for a standard two-axle vehicle as of March 1, 2026, at the Greenwood Drive gate or the Ocean Gate. Property owners, resort guests, and anyone with a Sea Pines rental reservation skip it. The resort has reimbursed the fee against a minimum food purchase at its restaurants. Sources quote the minimum as $25 or $30, so ask your server what applies on the day you go.
Nearby
The Beach Club sits on the ocean side of Sea Pines. For the sand, see the Sea Pines Beach Club page, and for a more casual marina setting, South Beach. For a walk before or after dinner, the Forest Preserve is inland, and Harbour Town is the other side of the resort.
