A most unique “bridge” at ICW mm 411.5

AKA the South Island Ferry, this is a floating swing bridge. That’s right, the bridge tender has to swing the barge 90 degrees to cross the ICW in order get vehicles on and off the island which is home to the Tom Yawkey Wildlife Center. The bridge is normally open for boat traffic and only spans the ICW on rare occasions.

This is located just to the west of Winyaw Bay.
