Browns Island and the complex tidal marshes of Onslow Bay dominate this coastal survey of the Onslow County shoreline. The landscape is defined by the critical transit corridor of the Intracoastal Waterway, which weaves behind the barrier islands and through Browns Sound. Navigational channels like Banks Channel and Shacklefoot Channel illustrate the fluid nature of this barrier system, where land and water constantly negotiate their boundaries.
