Bluffton and the surrounding Sea Islands are defined by a complex network of saltwater creeks and marshes as they appeared in 2020. The map details the residential expansion from the historic core of Bluffton out toward Brighton Beach and Buckingham Landing, where the Karl Bowers Bridge connects the mainland to the islands. Across the May River and Skull Creek, the landscape transitions into the planned communities and preserved wetlands of Hilton Head Island, including Spanish Wells, Lawton, and the extensive grounds of Sea Pines at the southern tip.
