Ferry Company
Haig Point has its own private ferry company that transports its members, their guests, and employees to and from Daufuskie and Hilton Head Island. The Embarkation Center on Hilton Head serves as both a ferry terminal and parking lot, as no cars are allowed in Haig Point - members and guests travel via golf cart or bicycle.
The Haig Point Ferry Company has three large ferries (Haig Point I, II and IV), two smaller ferries (Osprey & Pelican) and two smaller water taxi (Haig Point III & Sandpiper). In 2007, as a part of the club's long-range strategic plan, the Haig Point IV (with a capacity of 100 persons, including crew) was built and is now an active part of the fleet.

Famous quotes containing the words ferry and/or company:
“John Brown and Giuseppe Garibaldi were contemporaries not solely in the matter of time; their endeavors as liberators link their names where other likeness is absent; and the peaks of their careers were reached almost simultaneously: the Harper’s Ferry Raid occurred in 1859, the raid on Sicily in the following year. Both events, however differing in character, were equally quixotic.”
—John Cournos (1881–1956)
“In the old days, one married a wife; now one forms a company with a female partner, or moves in to live with a friend. And then one seduces the partner, or defiles the friend.”
—J. August Strindberg (1849–1912)
