PALMETTO DUNES TID BITS:

>> Palmetto Dunes is the only resort that has won three of the Mobil Four Star Ratings, making our plantation the only resort in history to earn this rating.

>> Shelter Cove Harbour is a 240 slip, deep water marina.

>> The Disney Beach access, located between the Marriott and the Hilton is available to all PD property owners. This beach access offers parking, restroom facilities and a snack bar. The Disney “Beach House” portion of the building is only for Disney owners and their guests. Disney offers a shuttle to their owners, which takes them back and forth to Shelter Cove. There is usually always parking available to PD owners and their guests.

>> The Dunes House, located right inside the north gate is now open and better than ever! After a total renovation, this wonderful amenity is available to all PD owners and their guests. The beach access and party facility offers restrooms with showers, parking, and snack bar , as well as, covered and open oceanfront sun decks. The Dunes House is also available to all PD owners to rent for birthdays, weddings, oyster roasts, or any special occasion for the fee of $125,00

>> Have you ever been to Picnic Island? Picnic Island is located between the 12th and 13th holes of the Robert Trent Jones golf course in the middle of the waterway. In the 1970s, many people would gather for a fun day of boating, fishing, volleyball and picnics. It is now somewhat overgrown, but still a nice place to explore while boating or canoeing.

>> Palmetto Dunes has a bike path that runs under the highway from Shelter Cove to the main PD resort. This is a great safety feature, as no one likes crossing a busy intersection on foot or on bike. Just follow the bike path on the exit side of PD and it leads you right under highway 278.

>> The Palmetto Dunes Club, located just inside the Inverness gate, across from the Fazio Club House, will extend a FREE trial membership to any PD property owner that may have an interest in joining. The club serves delicious lunches daily, hosts many golf outings and tournaments throughout the year, and throws social events that are great for meeting new people. The club has a beautiful setting and is surrounded by the big lagoon, so it is a great place to use for parties and receptions.

>> The lagoon system in Palmetto Dunes is unique to all of the world. It is made up of 11 miles of interconnecting lagoons and waterways that wind throughout PD, making it the largest of its kind. The lagoons are fed from Broad Creek through manual flood gates. Sea life thrive in these waters, so don’t be surprised if you see your neighbor pull up a crab pot full of shrimp and blue crabs. The waterways and lagoons are also teeming with fish and many types of birds. Boating the 11 mile lagoon system is a great way to enjoy the natural beauty we are so lucky to be surrounded by everyday. But, remember, if you plan on investing in a boat, make sure it has an electric engine. No gas powered watercraft are allowed in our pristine lagoon system.

FISHING ANYONE!
According to many local anglers, the Palmeto Dunes 11 mile lagoon is one of the best in-shore fishing spots on the island!  Waiting to be “hooked” are flounder and red spot bass, also known as “red fish”, bluefish and even an occasional cobia.  One word of advice...use live bait. You can catch fish with frozen shrimp, lures and such, but your best bet is to use either live shrimp or minnows. Happy Fishin’!
