Edisto Island is full of history and has to be one of the best examples of communities that both value history and resist fast growth. Anyone driving to Edisto Island or exploring the island, in general, should visit the Edisto Island Historic Preservation Society to get a full understanding of where they are.
Since 1986 the Edisto Island Historic Preservation Society has been working to preserve Edisto’s culture and the environment. The museum itself is a great place to visit following their extensive renovations and expansive collection.
It is impossible to cover everything that the museum offers here, so take the time to visit the Edisto Island Museum on your own.
