2019 Map of Brown Cedar Cut
USGS Topo · Published 2019About this map
Matagorda Peninsula acts as a narrow barrier between the tidal waters of East Matagorda Bay and the open Gulf of Mexico on this 2019 coastal survey. This thin strip of land is punctuated by Brown Cedar Cut, a significant natural pass that facilitates water exchange and serves as a critical geographic marker for Matagorda County. To the north, the Intracoastal Waterway cuts through the lowlands, providing a protected passage for maritime traffic separate from the bay. The map also captures the secluded waters of Live Oak Bay at the western edge of the frame. This snapshot of the Texas coastline illustrates the delicate balance of the barrier island system and its relationship with the human-engineered canal system that supports the regional economy.
