1959 Map of Bull Island

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

The coastal environment of the Cape Romain National Wildlife Refuge is defined by a complex network of tidal flats and inlets. Much of the land area is concentrated on Bull Island, where a series of interior ponds like Big Pond and Lower Summerhouse Pond sit behind the protective line of Bull Breakers. The island's geography includes established routes such as Old Fort Road and Lighthouse Road, leading toward the expansive Bull Harbor. To the northwest, the Intracoastal Waterway cuts through the marshlands of the Francis Marion National Forest, connecting to narrow passages like Saltpond Creek. Evidence of early settlement and coastal management appears through the Wilson Cem and the Lookout Tower near Sewee Camp, while the vast Bulls Bay remains dominated by shifting features like Bird Island Shoal.
