1948 Map of St. Helena Sound

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

St. Helena Island and its surrounding archipelago define this coastal landscape just after World War II. The map focuses on the complex tidal waterways where the Morgan River and Harbor River converge into the expansive St. Helena Sound. A lone Tower stands on the eastern shore of Hunting Island, likely serving as a crucial navigational aid for vessels navigating the shifting shoals and inlets of the Atlantic Ocean.
