The Hilton Head Bike Rental Directory
The island’s rental shops, all in one place
Hilton Head has more bicycle rental companies than some islands have restaurants, and that is a wonderful problem to have. Most deliver to your villa and collect the bikes when you leave, many include locks, baskets and helmets, and every one of them knows the same happy truth, that a bike is the best way to see this island.
We keep this directory for our guests at Royal Dunes and for anyone planning to ride, and we review it each year to keep it current. Shops are listed alphabetically. If you operate an island bike shop we have missed, write to us and we will gladly add you.
For where to ride once you have wheels, our full guide to [biking Hilton Head] covers the pathways, the beach at low tide and the e-bike rules, and our [ten-stop ride from Royal Dunes to Harbour Town] maps the island’s best single day on a bike.

A note for riders
Most shops book up in summer, so reserve a few days ahead, and arrange delivery for arrival day so the first low tide belongs to you. Staying at Royal Dunes? Our mid-island location means every delivery service on this list reaches us easily, and the beach is a short ride from the rack.
