What is the Edisto Environmental Learning Center?
The Edisto Environmental Learning Center helps promote the wise use of coastal resources with the theme “Choosing to Protect Our Coast.” The Environmental Learning Center 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, including a touch tank, which helps visitors understand the fragile resources of the ACE Basin estuarine reserve, the largest such natural reserve on the East Coast. Loggerhead Sea Turtle Walks are held during the summer months. For more information, contact 843-869-4430 or visit 8377 State Cabin Road, Tuesday through Saturday from 9a-4p.
