2011 Map of Cape Arago

About this map

Cape Arago State Park anchors this coastal survey, highlighting a complex shoreline of headlands and coves along the Coos County edge. The map reveals a sequence of inlets including North Cove, Middle Cove, and South Cove, sheltered by the rocky outcrops of Simpson Reef and Shell Island. To the north, the geography is defined by Gregory Point and the adjacent Chiefs Island, while the interior shows the drainage of small coastal streams such as First Creek and Mussel Creek. This 2011 edition provides a detailed perspective on the shoreline south toward Seven Devils, where the land meets the Pacific Ocean at Sacchi Beach and Agate Beach. The proximity of landmarks like Baltimore Rock and Qochyax Island illustrates the navigational hazards and geological character of this specific stretch of the Oregon coast during the early twenty-first century.
