What an exhilarating experience!
Our son insisted on visiting the Serpentarium.
The extensive snake species at this place is impressive. If you get lucky, like we did, you can talk to the two gentlemen there and discuss various snakes, bearded dragons and even hold them! Thank you for such an amazing experience 🙏🏻!

Outdoor space has alligators and turtles. (You may need bug spray there!)

The Edisto Island Serpentarium is a fantastic place to visit and learn about the reptile world.

Highly recommend!

Wonderful place! Watched a snake milking, got to hold a ball python, and saw beautiful venomous and non-venmonous snakes! Enclosures were stunning and very informative.

Fun and informative snake show and so many interesting things to see!

I love snakes so last year when we came the Serpentariun was closed. We made it this year and the place is an unbelievable hidden gem. The place is amazing and has a lot of information available to read and not only about serpents. The snakes are amazing, the have indor and outdoor exhibits, they have shows every hour or so and they are really informative. We were lucky enough to talk to the owner and his daughter, beautiful people and made the visit even more special.

Nice place. My 8 & 5 year olds really enjoyed it and I learned some things as well! Presentations were interesting/informative. Their gift shop is nice. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Bathrooms clean. We spent about two hours here, despite the heat, and would have stayed longer if the outdoor concession accepted electronic payment like the gift shop. Left to get my wallet and we decided to head on out for the day. Would definitely revisit to see the snake presentation we missed! Very reasonably priced admission. I think we spent a total of under $60 for the three of us, including icecreams.

This is a great place to visit over the years. I've watched it grow. I remember all the way back when they used to do a snake show at the Halloween extravaganza. In Hollywood, South Carolina wow, so impressive. How far they have came? One of the brothers have since passed away. Hayward.
So sorry to hear that.
But to go and visit now to see how far they came from. Those days is absolutely amazing. Truly, God is blessing. This business bring the kids and come out and take a look. It's great, we really enjoyed it.

This experience was over the top! We got to hear a wonderful lecture on snakes with snakes on stage. Then we got to see the feeding of the alligators. Every single person who spoke was so knowledgeable! What a lovely spot and we felt so lucky to partake in this experience! we even got to handle a snake!

Amazing experience. Well worth the drive from Summerville. The animal enclosures were well-made, decorated, and cleaned. The staff was friendly. The gentleman who conducted the snake exhibit did an excellent job handling and giving relevant information about the snake species in South Carolina and how to identify them. The reptiles were well-fed and healthy. I have never seen open snake enclosures before and they were incredible, seeing the snakes behave like they do in the wild. Up in trees, sunning themselves on logs and hydrating in the water. It was a great day overall. I highly recommend this place.
