2024 Map of Bon Secour Bay

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

Fort Morgan Peninsula separates the vast waters of Bon Secour Bay from the Gulf, creating a complex landscape of coastal wetlands and residential development. This modern survey illustrates the transition from the protected marshes of the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge to the expanding street grids of western Gulf Shores. The presence of several family landmarks, including Benton Cem and Shell Banks Cem, indicates the deep roots of local communities like Gasque amidst the shifting shorelines. The Intracoastal Waterway cuts through the bay, serving as a primary maritime artery alongside natural features like Skunk Bayou and Shellbank Bayou. Notable coastal elevations such as Seymour Bluff and landforms like Cypress Point provide structural detail to the low-lying terrain, while the network of county roads and local lanes reflects the modern layout of these historic Alabama shorelines.
