About this map

Little River and North Myrtle Beach anchor this coastal region where the Intracoastal Waterway cuts through the marshlands of the South Carolina and North Carolina border. The landscape is defined by the complex shifting of tidal inlets and islands, including Waties Island, Bird Island, and Hog Island. This 2014 survey documents the dense residential development surrounding Little River Neck and Futch Beach, contrasted with the protected natural stretches along Long Bay.

A notable geographic feature is the intersection of the Little River and the Atlantic, forming the Little River Inlet. To the east, the state line bisects the marshes near Mad Inlet and Sunset Beach. Local history and genealogy researchers can find specific named points such as The Battery, Mink Island, and Corkins Neck, which illustrate the long-standing maritime and agricultural heritage of Horry Co and Brunswick County before modern coastal expansion.
