1943 Map of Beacon Beach

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

The War Department and Corps of Engineers mapped this coastal stretch of Bay County during the Second World War, focusing on the strategic and topographical details of the Florida shoreline. The landscape is defined by the narrow barrier of Lands End, which separates the open Gulf of Mexico from the sheltered waters of St Andrew Bay. Along the inner coast, small settlements and outposts like Davis, Walley 2, and Spanish Shanty dot the shoreline, reflecting the maritime activity and early development of the region before modern expansion.
