Woods Bay is one of the mysterious " Carolina Bays," whose origins are still a puzzle to scientists.
Hunting and Fishing
Deer, quail, duck, wild boar, pheasant and turkey abound in the dense forests of Sumter County. With an exceptionally long deer season, privately managed quail lands and excellent waterfowl hunting in the Santee Swamp, Sumter is a paradise for the outdoor sportsman.
Year-round fishing is a pleasure at Lake Marion, part of the Santee-Cooper lake system that sprawls across more than 110,000 acres in Sumter, Clarendon, Orangeburg and Berkeley Counties. The lake teems with largemouth and striped bass, catfish and crappie. It is accessible from Sumter County via Packs Landing, Rimini Landing and Sparkleberry Landing.
