2011 Map of Little River

About this map

Little River sits at the northern edge of the South Carolina coast, where the Intracoastal Waterway meets a network of tidal creeks and marshy islands. This coastal landscape is defined by the shifting shoreline of Long Bay, featuring prominent landmasses like Waties Island and Bird Island separated by the Little River Inlet. The map reveals a transition from traditional maritime features to modern recreational development, showing established landmarks such as The Old Home Place and The Battery alongside the Ocean Harbour Golf Links. Residential and leisure growth is evident in settlements like Futch Beach and Bald Beach, while the Little River Post Office remains a central point for the community. Numerous lighthouses, from Lighthouse Twelve to Lighthouse Thirty-three, underscore the area's vital role in coastal navigation through Dunn Sound Creek and beyond.
