Birds at Coligny Beach Renourishment Project

Hilton Head Island’s beaches are more than a scenic escape—they’re critical to the island’s identity, economy, and ecology. In order to preserve the beach, an infusion of sand is needed along some of the coast to ensure the sandy shoreline is wide enough for everyone

The beach is a vital habitat for both migratory birds and nesting sea turtles

Steps on the Pyramid of the Sun

The Pyramid of the Sun has 248 steps on its west side. As of 2020, one can no longer climb the Pyramid of the Sun at Teotihuacan due to a prohibition by INAH (the National Institute of Anthropology and History) to preserve the site and ensure visitor safety, owing to the dangerous and steep steps.
