About this map

Calabash sits at the heart of this coastal borderlands landscape, where the North Carolina South Carolina state line cuts diagonally through the saltwater marshes and timber tracts. The area is defined by its massive swamp systems and shallow basins, including Waccamaw Swamp, Doghead Bay, and Drowned Bay. These wetlands are interlaced with early road networks such as Old Tram Road and Wampee Road, signaling a history of maritime commerce and land exploitation.
