Remove the watermelon from the grill and let it cool slightly.

While the watermelon is cooling, remove the silk and husk from the corn and grill it until tender, about 10 minutes, turning occasionally.

Once the corn is cool enough to handle, cut the kernels off the cob.

In a bowl, combine the grilled corn, minced garlic, lime juice, honey, chopped avocado, crumbled feta cheese, chopped red onion, and chopped basil leaves.

Toss gently to combine all the ingredients.
