According to a recent survey, Wapoo Cut is the second busiest boat landing in Charleston County.  On weekends, especially during the summer, it is best left to the trailerboaters and avoided by kayakers.

However, on a recent June 3rd morning, Helon and I found it at 50% capacity when we launched around 8:30.  Both kayaks were atop Helon's SUV and my pickup was pre-positioned at Folly Beach Landing, our take-out.

Today, March 13, 2008, my friend Helon and I launched from Folly Beach boat landing for a circumnavigation of Long Island.  We paddled down Folly River, then turned into Long River.  On the map, you will see that we paddled around Oak Island before continuting on our journey.

Long Island, marked on the map, is slated for development.  When we paddled past, we saw a 4-wheeler parked near the shore  plus boards and skids ready for the landing party that didn't want to get their feet wet.

The map shows nearly 200 boat landings in what is generally considered the Lowcountry of South Carolina.  Other maps show the Midland and the Blue Ridge/Piedmont areas of the state.
