While visiting our coastal state park, be sure to stop at the Edisto Interpretive Center to learn more about its ecosystem and the creatures that live here including shorebirds and sea life.

With the theme “Choosing to Protect Our Coast,” the Environmental Learning Center helps promote the wise use of coastal resources. It is headquarters for Edisto Beach State Park’s interpretive programs and curriculum-based field studies, and for the S.C. Department of Natural Resources’ education and research services. An exhibit in the center features interactive displays, which helps visitors understand the fragile resources of the ACE Basin estuarine reserve, the largest such natural reserve on the East Coast.

The Interpretive Center is open Tuesday through Saturday from 9:00 a.m.- 4:00 p.m. To sign up for programs through the center please call 843-869-4430.
