How to Use This Summerton, South Carolina Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Summerton, 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 Summerton.

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.

Summerton sits upon a broad, low-slung plain where the horizon stretches wide and the air holds a heavy, sun-warmed stillness. It lies 21.6 miles south of Sumter, SC (from Sumter, SC: bearing 181°T), and is situated 7.8 miles west-northwest of Wyboo. Scott Branch carves a quiet, persistent path through the surrounding earth, its waters moving with a deliberate pace that mirrors the slow turn of the seasons. To the west, the faint silhouette of the Sand Hills breaks the flat skyline, providing a distant, hazy boundary to a landscape dominated by pine stands and agricultural fields. Within the immediate perimeter of the landscape, the stillness is occasionally punctuated by the presence of the Summerton Waste Treatment Pond, a functional stretch of water that reflects the shifting colors of the sky. The light here at dusk possesses a singular quality, turning the fields a deep, bruised copper before the shadows stretch long and thin across the dirt roads.

Summerton exists as a place where the weight of historical memory is as tangible as the red-tinged soil beneath one’s feet. Public life gathers around Charles Alan Ridgeway Park, a space that serves as a quiet anchor for daily routines and local gatherings. The economy continues to draw its vitality from the land, defined by long-standing traditions of cultivation that have shaped the region’s development over many generations. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, the dense, quiet expanse of Poinsett State Forest offers a deeper look into the native flora that once blanketed this entire interior region. Residents move through their days with a steady, earned patience, navigating a world where the legacy of the past informs the modest, persistent ambition of the present.

About This Summerton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Summerton, South Carolina. Coordinates: 33.608218, -80.351195. 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 Summerton includes the ZIP code (29148), telephone area code (803), county seat of Clarendon County (Manning), and school district assignment (Clarendon 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.
