About this map

The Santee River system dominates this coastal South Carolina landscape, where the North Santee River and South Santee River branch around numerous islands like Hampton Island and Daniels Island. This 2017 survey documents a region defined by its sprawling wetlands and the protected acreage of the Francis Marion National Forest. The map captures the meeting of three counties—Georgetown, Berkeley, and Charleston—near the settlement of Germantown.

Modern recreational access is highlighted by water-based paths such as the Chicken Creek Canoe Trail and Wambaw Creek Canoe Trail, which navigate the intricate network of creeks like Push and Go Creek and Bonny Clabber Gr. Local history is preserved at the Mount Zion Cem near Britton Neck, while the John T Stevens Memorial Bridge provides the primary crossing point for travelers moving between the northern and southern banks of the Santee.
