About location

Sullivan’s Island is best known in South Carolina for Fort Moultrie, the coastal fortification associated with the American victory over a British attack in 1776. This narrow barrier island lies between the Atlantic Ocean and Charleston Harbor, with low salt marshes shaping its inland edge. South Carolina Highway 703 follows the island’s settled spine and provides its road connection toward Mount Pleasant. The fort later formed part of the defenses guarding Charleston Harbor, while the island developed as a residential coastal community. Its open marsh corridors, sandy Atlantic shore and proximity to historic Charleston give Sullivan’s Island a distinct Lowcountry character.

The Atlantic Ocean defines the setting of Sullivan's Island — its sandy shore and position at the entrance to Charleston Harbor shape a low-rise barrier-island community facing open water and a historic South Carolina port. Fort Moultrie, preserved within Fort Sumter and Fort Moultrie National Historical Park, marks the site where American defenders repelled a British naval attack in 1776. The island has long been linked with Charleston: it was once reached by ferry and later became a summer retreat for city residents. Residential streets, beach access points and the maritime setting distinguish it from downtown Charleston. See how Sullivan's Island fits into the Charleston Harbor area by browsing webcams nearby.

Region South Carolina

Among the regions of the United States, South Carolina stands out for its sweep from the Atlantic coast and tidal Lowcountry to the foothills of the Blue Ridge. Its shoreline combines barrier islands, salt marshes and estuaries, with Charleston long established as one of the country’s important Atlantic port cities. Fort Sumter, in Charleston Harbor, is where the American Civil War began in 1861. Farther inland, Congaree National Park protects a notable expanse of old-growth bottomland hardwood forest, while Columbia serves as the state capital.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
