Cape Romain Refuge Ranger Tricia Midgett recommends making reservations since tours have been operating at limited capacity. A public fishing pier is located at Garris Landing, where the Bulls Bay ferry departs. Note that fishing and hunting permits are required for conducting these activities in the refuge. You might have seen photographs of Bulls Bay’s “Boneyard Beach,” depicting hauntingly beautiful images of its fallen oaks and cedars lying scattered and skeletal among the sand and surf. There are trails for hiking and viewing wildlife, which may include birds, the black fox squirrel, white-tailed deer, alligators and other reptiles. Tidal creek dolphin sightings are common. The Sewee Visitor and Environmental Education Center off Highway 17 in Awendaw serves as Cape Romain’s visitor center. Although its building was closed to the public as of publication with expected reopening in May, the grounds are open Monday through Friday. The easy one-mile Nebo Trail, entailing the 2,800-foot boardwalk, passes through wetland and longleaf pine ecosystems to bring you to a viewing platform for the endangered red wolf enclosure. Sewee is considered one of only 43 captive breeding sites in the United States for red wolves, according to Midgett. They house three wolves, two male and one female, with another female slated to arrive from Charles Towne Landing. The trail continues to serene Nebo Ponds, which offer fishing during daylight hours and good birdwatching. Sewee Pond by the center is only open to fishing during special annual events, but you might spot alligators, turtles and wading birds. The visitors center is seeking volunteer staff upon Photo by U.
