1920 Map of St. Helena Sound

About this map

St. Helena Sound serves as the focal point for this maritime survey, illustrating the complex coastal geography of the South Carolina Lowcountry shortly after the First World War. The map details a shifting landscape of tidal estuaries and barrier islands, including the prominent Hunting Island and the eastern portion of St. Helena Island. Marine navigation is emphasized through depth curves and the positioning of offshore markers like those in St. Helena Harbor.
