Edisto Island Preservation Alliance (EIPA) works with multiple organizations on Edisto Island to make sure it stays that way.  Edisto Island is a sea island lying within the large tidal basin where the Ashepoo, Combahee and Edisto Rivers converge creating the ACE Basin as they complete their journey to the Atlantic Ocean.   The multiple habitats in this area caused The Nature Conservancy to name it one of the Last Great Places in America.

Edisto Island is laced with tidal creeks for fishing, crabbing, shrimping, and boating; preserved land for hiking, birdwatching, and biking; and beautiful, unspoiled beaches loved by families for generations. With your help, we aim to preserve this extraordinary sea island.

EIPA strongly supports Botany Bay Wildlife Management Area and has worked with the community to get our main highway, Hwy. 174, designated as the Edisto Island National Scenic Byway. EIPA is also driving a shared vision that we and our partner organizations can use as a roadmap as we plan for the future for Edisto Island. Learn more about these projects here.
