2020 Map of Minim Island

About this map

The North Santee River and South Santee River converge toward the Atlantic coast in this detailed coastal survey, forming a complex network of wetlands and tidal passages. The landscape is defined by extensive low-lying landforms such as Minim Island, Murphy Island, and Kinloch Island, separated by a intricate system of natural creeks and engineered waterways. Notable man-made features include the Intracoastal Waterway and the Estherville Minim Creek Canal, which facilitate navigation through this aquatic environment. A portion of the Francis Marion National Forest occupies the western edge, containing the Washo Reserve. The map also illustrates the dividing line between Georgetown and Charleston counties as it follows the river channels. Local infrastructure is represented by roads such as Annadale Rd and Old Kinloch Rd, providing access to the various points and islands in this riverine delta.
