I think the 5 1/2 drive is more accurate. I make the drive several times a year. The shortest route is 75 to Macon, then I16 toSavannah then I95 to Route 278. that leaves you about 18 miles out.

The Atlanta area has a great deal of traffic which slows the trip down.

We live on the North side ofAtlanta off of I85 and shoot for 4 1/2 hours to the South end of HHI using cross island pkwy (not speed limit driving of course). As stated above, traffic can slow you down coming through Atlanta if leaving from Smyrna.

Can you drive a car on Hilton Head Island?

Here are some tips to help you get around. U. S. Route 278 is the only highway coming to Hilton Head Island. 278 extends all the way to I-95 (Exit #8). After you cross the large bridge (which spans the Intercoastal Waterway), you are now driving on Hilton Head Island.
