About Bonneau
Bonneau (about 250 residents) is a tiny Berkeley County town on the shore of Lake Moultrie, born in the 1940s when the Santee Cooper project flooded the basin and relocated entire communities — the Jack Delano photographs in this profile document that displacement. Today it's a quiet lakeside settlement: fishing, boating, and lake views define life, with the Santee Cooper lakes (Moultrie and Marion) offering some of South Carolina's best freshwater fishing. There is no commercial core to speak of; Moncks Corner is the nearest full-service town.
