While you are here, explore our beautiful grounds. Nestled within the arms of Jarvis Creek, lies a 68-acre parcel of land which has been known as Honey Horn Plantation for more than two centuries. It is the largest parcel of open land on Hilton Head Island and one of the last places where you can envision what the island was like before development. The oldest homes on the island, magnificent live oaks and ancient cedars, beautiful wide-open fields that harken back to
the days when this was a quiet agrarian community. Experience what the island was once, is now, and hopefully will be in the future. The Discovery House at the Coastal Discovery Museum, 70 Honey Horn Dr., is open daily from 9 – 4:30 and Sunday 11-3.
