How to Use This Islandton, South Carolina Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Islandton, South Carolina. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of South Carolina or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Islandton.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Islandton, South Carolina

Islandton is a locality in Colleton County, South Carolina, United States. It is a small community with a population of 58. The population density is 8.1 people per km². Islandton is located at 32.9091°N, 80.9354°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 29929.

Islandton remains a quiet expanse of pine-shadowed earth where the hum of cicadas often dictates the pace of the afternoon. It lies 36.4 miles north-northwest of Beaufort, SC (from Beaufort, SC: bearing 335°T), and is situated 9.3 miles east-northeast of Varnville. Ricepatch Creek carves a slow, meandering path through the landscape, its dark waters reflecting the heavy, humid sky that hangs low over the flat, wooded terrain. Beyond the immediate canopy, the land stretches out in a series of subtle, grassy plains, occasionally broken by the presence of dense thickets that seem to hold the heat of the day long after the sun has begun to dip toward the horizon. Five miles away, the surface of Bryans Lake remains undisturbed, a mirror for the towering hardwoods that frame its edges, while the distant, hazy silhouette of Laurel Ridge marks the far-off boundary of the world.

Islandton bears the weight of a long agricultural legacy, where the soil has been turned for generations to sustain the modest rhythms of rural life. While the economy remains rooted in the quiet industriousness of timber and local farming, the legacy of the region’s past lingers in the architecture of weathered barns and the persistent stillness of the fields. Residents might travel nine miles toward Dr. H.J. Brooks Neighborhood Park to find a moment of community respite, or look toward the depression of Parkers Bay, a feature that interrupts the otherwise level horizon with its own unique, shadowed character. Life here is defined by the persistent growth of the woods and the way the light catches the dust on a gravel road, creating a sense of permanence that exists entirely apart from the frantic pace of the wider world.

About This Islandton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Islandton, South Carolina. Coordinates: 32.909055, -80.935382. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Islandton includes the ZIP code (29929), telephone area code (843), county seat of Colleton County (Walterboro), and school district assignment (Colleton County School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
