Fripp Island and Hunting Island define this coastal landscape where the Atlantic Ocean meets a complex network of barrier islands and tidal creeks. This 2014 survey captures the residential development and natural preservation of the South Carolina Lowcountry, showing the dense residential street networks of Fripp Island contrasted with the open reaches of Hunting Island Beach. Navigation and access points are clearly marked, such as the Russ Point Boat Lndg and the connection provided by SC-406. The map provides a detailed view of the shifting waterways between the islands, including Fripp Inlet, Old House Creek, and the Harbor River, documenting the intricate relationship between the land and the sea in Beaufort County. Local neighborhoods like Fiddlers Ridge are situated among these marshy estuaries and maritime forests.
