Kiawah Island occupies the northwest corner of this coastal survey, where the terrestrial environment meets the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. The map centers on the dynamic maritime boundary of the South Carolina coast, specifically highlighting the waters of Stono Inlet and the southern tip of the island at Sandy Point. This 2024 edition reflects the modern hydrography of the region, providing a contemporary reference for the shifting sands and tidal entries that characterize the Charleston County shoreline. Given the sparse landmass on this particular quadrangle, the focus remains primarily on the nautical approaches and the natural coastal features that define the entrance to the inland waterways near Charleston.
