2014 Map of Wampee

About this map

North Myrtle Beach and its surrounding coastal communities are captured here in a period of significant development, illustrating the density of neighborhood growth between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean. The landscape is defined by its relation to the water, ranging from the maritime activity at Coquina Harbor to the shoreline stretches of Ocean Drive Beach and Crescent Beach. Further inland, the inland village of Wampee and the junction at Nixons Crossroads represent the older rural framework of Horry County. Family history researchers will find several significant burial grounds, including Forest Lawn Cem and the Southeastern Memorial Gardens, alongside the Grand Strand Airport which anchors the local transportation network. The northeast corner is dominated by the historic Little River area and Little River Neck, where the marshlands of House Creek meet the sea.
