2011 Map of Bull Island

About this map

Bull Island and the complex salt marshes of the South Carolina coast define this 2011 survey, showing a landscape shaped by shifting sands and tidal currents. The island itself is crisscrossed by established tracks such as Old Fort Rd, Sheep Head Ridge Rd, and Lighthouse Rd, which navigate between interior water bodies like Big Pond and Moccasin Pond. These roads suggest a history of habitation and land management on the island, separated from the mainland by the Intracoastal Waterway and Bull Harbor. To the north, Wilson Cemetery and Sewee Camp Creek provide points of interest for genealogists and local historians, while the surrounding waters of Bulls Bay are dotted with navigational hazards including Bird Island Shoal and the Bull Breakers. This modern data provides a clear view of the relationship between the low-lying barrier islands and the mainland.
