The Cantey Bay is near the Santee State Park is off of the I 95 / SC 301 South Carolina. I've driven by this place dozens of times and barely given it a thought.. or if I did, it was to wonder why it had been set aside as a reserve. I found out when we drove by it on the way to upstate South Carolina.. when the daisies are in boom it is drop dead gorgeous. I'm not kidding, cars were slamming on their brakes to take a look. I pulled off the highway and onto a secondary causeway that cuts across the preserve. Got lots of reference photos. You can bet one of them will wind up being used as a reference for a painting for my State Park Series. Be forewarned if you attempt to do any photography or plein air painting there, there a the site has a lot of fire ant mounds along the road, so watch where you step.
PS also in the same area are the Santee Indian Mound and Fort Watson American Revolutionary War Site.
