About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** Knife Island Landing is located in Marion County near Marion, South Carolina, providing access to the Little Pee Dee River. The site is positioned at river mile 28.0, downstream from Huggins Landing and upstream of other popular access points on this scenic river corridor.

**Facilities & Paddling:** This public boat ramp accommodates kayaks, canoes, and small motorboats. The Little Pee Dee River in this section is a slow-moving, blackwater river suitable for paddlers of varying skill levels. From Knife Island, paddlers can access nearby landings for multi-day trips or shorter day paddles. The river's gentle current and meandering character make it ideal for recreational paddling and wildlife viewing. Be prepared for typical blackwater conditions—stained water and variable vegetation along the banks.

**Nearby Options:** Knife Island is well-positioned within a series of landings along the Little Pee Dee. Huggins Landing is just upstream, while Highway 109 access (four river miles downstream) offers convenient take-out options for moderate paddling distances. Plan your trip with these distances in mind for shuttle coordination.
