Coastal Discovery Museum, Hilton Head

Wonderful place. Family run, quality family experience. Beautiful facility and grounds. From the museum to the discovery room for the kids to the critter meet and greet (you and the kids can even hold a live alligator!) And more, this is a great activity on the island. Highly recommend for all ages.

We went to the Coastal Discovery Museum, for a trip with our special needs teens. This site is wheelchair accessible and has rest spots, even though the walks aren't long, but to give you a chance to enjoy nature. Leading into each site/exhibit there were information charts, to inform you on what was your next place of interest is.. The open butterfly exhibit is amazing; to see them flying around while you're walking in their habitat. The history artifacts on the inside are great eye openers to our past and ancestors. The staff were great and informative, they didn't mind sharing the information they knew. Wonderful experience, would love to go again, with my own children.
