Have you explored Emry’s Bookstore in Port Royal Plaza yet? This darling shop has multiple rooms and quiet nooks for reading new books.  The business was started last year by a mother/ daughter duo, Rachel and Emily Baker. Rachel and her family used to vacation on Hilton Head Island (from Charlotte, NC) every year, and a tradition became stopping into the little bookstore in the Shops at Sea Pines and picking out a new book. One of her favorites from back in those days, was Ender’s Game. Find Poppy’s ensemble at Collage

One of the best ways to spend a rainy day on the island is checking out local art galleries. We popped into the Art League of Hilton Head Island’s gallery in the Arts Center of Coastal Carolina (near Shelter Cove) to check out “From their Spirit, By their Hands,” an exhibit that pays homage to the Gullah Geechee culture.
