The Wando River begins in the small fishing town of Awendaw, South Carolina and empties out into the Cooper River here in Charleston. The Wando River is a salt-water river that runs past the Rivertowne neighborhoods in Mount Pleasant, creating opportunities for recreation with a beautiful view. If you are looking for real estate on the Wando River, the Rivertowne Neighborhood could have the home you have been looking for.

Rich in history, artifacts drudged from the riverbed of the Wando River date back to the Paleo-Indian era from 10,000 BC to 8,000 BC. Following the settlement of Charles Towne in 1670’s and it’s relocation to Oyster Point (the modern day Battery Row), the Wando River became a focal point of agriculture and small ship building for the settlers who eventually renamed the township, Charleston. 

Fishing on the Wando River is heralded for its yield of speckled trout, given the amount of surrounding marshes, which create a near-perfect environment for nesting grounds. Many local Charleston and Mount Pleasant residents can be found fishing the Wando River, especially in the fall season.
