2014 Map of Cabretta Inlet

About this map

Sapelo Island and Blackbeard Island dominate this coastal survey of McIntosh County, separated by the winding course of Blackbeard Creek. The settlement of Raccoon Bluff sits along the western shoreline of the barrier islands, connected by a network of local roads including Miller Pump Rd and Church Rd. The geography is defined by the transition from tidal marshes to the open waters of the Atlantic Ocean, with Cabretta Inlet providing passage between the southern tip of Blackbeard Island and Cabretta Island. To the east, the submerged hazards of Blackbeard Shoal extend into the sea, while Nelsons Bluff marks a distinct elevation point on the marshy interior. The infrastructure shown here, such as King Savannah Rd and Tanners Trl, illustrates the localized access within these protected island environments.
