2022 Map of Cape Lookout

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Cape Lookout National Seashore dominates this coastal survey, documenting the distinct hooked profile of the Southern Outer Banks. The landscape is defined by the sharp convergence of the Atlantic Ocean and Onslow Bay, where the shoreline terminates at Cape Point. This recent map provides a contemporary record of the shifting sands at Power Squadron Spit and the protected waters of Lookout Bight. Unlike more developed stretches of the North Carolina coast, the area is characterized by a lack of permanent settlements, focused instead on the preservation of the Core Banks and Outer Banks. Local transit is limited to primitive routes like the South Core Back Road Trl and Cape Lookout Road, which serve the small cluster of structures at the historic Cape Lookout site near Catfish Point and Wreck Point.
