The area features a designated anchorage zone near an active paper mill, providing ample space between boats compared to Mediterranean mooring standards. For provisioning, Walmart serves as a practical, cost-effective option for purchasing bulk food items and mobile SIM cards with unlimited data plans. The town maintains a clean, pedestrian-friendly environment with historical markers and local museums, including the South Carolina Maritime Museum.
