Loved the historical context. Came for the talk about the civil war activity in the area. Lecturer was fantastic. Her presentation was riveting and captured the attention of those in attendance. We did not get enough time to explore the whole area so we will be back before we leave this historical island.

We loved the Coastal Discovery Museum. We walked the lovey Discovery Trail and then stayed for an interesting and informative presentation on the Civil War on Hilton Head Island. Our lecturer also discussed what factors lead up to Secession in South Carolina. We learned a great deal. I highly recommend this event.

Jim is Such a warm, likable man! Interesting and so pleasant to listen to. Enjoyed and learned some new info, perspective on the Civil War.

Well researched presentation! Great information about a pivotal six hour naval attack ending with Union occupation of Hilton Head. Wish it had been longer. The museum has many interesting displays relating to local culture and the grounds reflect the natural local habitat. Will visit again.

This was a very interesting and worthwhile talk. The museum itself is small and nicely laid out. The Civil War presentation was professional and taught us much about the Islands history. Would highly recommend this experience.

We really enjoyed the Civil War Era talk - Jim the presenter was excellent. He gave an overall view of how the Civil War started which was really interesting and then a more detailed explanation about how the Civil War affected Hilton Head. The presentation slides were great too and aided the overall presentation. Thank you Jim - we really enjoyed it. Best Wishes Karen & Graham
