About this map

The Santee River system dominates this coastal South Carolina landscape, where the main channel splits into the North Santee River and the South Santee River. This deltaic environment is defined by low-lying land masses like Hampton Island, Goat Island, and Daniels Island, which are separated by a complex network of smaller tidal flows including Chicken Creek and Push and Go Creek. The intersection of river and road is anchored by the John T Stevens Memorial Bridge, carrying modern transit across the wetlands.

Local settlements such as Germantown, South Santee, and Wambaw Corner dot the inland areas, often connected by historic routes like Old Georgetown Rd. For those researching local history or genealogy, Mount Zion Cemetery sits near the northern boundary, while family-named features like Crow Hill and specific sites like the Elmwood Hunt Camp provide evidence of long-standing community ties to the Santee basin.
