2024 Map of Bull Island

About this map

Bull Island dominates this coastal landscape, serving as a primary component of the Cape Romain National Wildlife Refuge. The map reveals a sophisticated network of internal roads and trails, such as Old Fort Rd and Sheep Head Ridge Rd, which traverse the island between freshwater features like Big Pond and Moccasin Pond. On the mainland, the settlement of Awendaw is positioned near the Intracoastal Waterway, with the Wilson Cem providing a point of genealogical interest within the Francis Marion National Forest. The geography is defined by the dynamic intersection of land and sea, where Bulls Bay and Bull Harbor provide sheltered waters behind protective formations like Bird Island Shoal and White Island. This detailed survey offers a clear view of the protected Cape Romain Wilderness as it stands in the modern era, documenting the precise shoreline of the Atlantic Ocean.
