Fort Moultrie and the Fort Sumter National Monument guard the mouth of the Charleston Harbor, anchoring a landscape defined by the shifting waters of the South Carolina coast. This contemporary survey details the sprawling residential and maritime developments across Mount Pleasant, Sullivans Island, and the Isle of Palms. Genealogy interests are well-served by numerous small burial grounds, including the Confederate Cem and Ocean Grove Cem, as well as the secluded Cook's Old Field Cem. The map tracks the intricate waterways of the Intracoastal Waterway and Gray Bay, alongside cultural landmarks like the Charles Pinckney National Historic Site. From the suburban growth in Snowden to the salt marshes of Copahee Sound, the map captures the modern character of these barrier islands and their historic coastal defenses.
