2014 Map of Georgetown South

About this map

Georgetown and its sprawling coastal environs are defined by the convergence of the Sampit River, Great Pee Dee River, and Waccamaw River as they meet at the Atlantic coast. This 2014 survey documents the complex water network of the Lowcountry, highlighting several islands including Rabbit Island, Horse Island, and Cat Island. The historic character of the city is evident in the concentration of burial grounds like the Prince George Winyah Cem, Jewish Cem, and Baptist Cem near the downtown waterfront. Beyond the urban center, the landscape transitions into industrial and aviation uses at the Georgetown County Airport and the forested reaches near the Winyah Fire Tower. These inland areas are connected by major infrastructure such as the L H Siau Bridge and Pennyroyal Bridge, which cross the numerous creeks and marshes like Pennyroyal Creek and Turkey Cr that segment the coastal plain.
