The Coastal Discovery Museum was established in 1985 with a mission to teach the public about the natural history and cultural heritage of the Lowcountry.  The Museum makes learning about Hilton Head Island and the surrounding region a fun filled experience for the whole family.

The Museum has two locations:

The Coastal Discovery Museum at Honey Horn:
Opened to the public in 2007, the 68 acre historic Honey Horn property has a history dating back 300 years and is described as the last significant parcel of open space on Hilton Head Island.  This majestic visitor friendly venue consists of salt marshes, open fields, stands of centuries old live oak trees, the State's largest Southern Red Cedar tree dated at 1595, and a collection of some of the oldest buildings that exist on Hilton Head Island.

The Coastal Discovery Museum at 100 William Hilton Parkway (Highway 278) :
Located at Mile Marker #1 just over the bridge to the Island, the Museum shares space with the Chamber of Commerce Welcome Center.

This location includes a small exhibition gallery, a popular gift shop featuring South Carolina products, books, crafts, artwork, and children's educational games/toys.
