2018 Map of Cape San Blas

About this map

Cape San Blas and the Saint Joseph Peninsula define this coastal landscape, where the waters of Saint Joseph Bay meet the open Gulf of Mexico. The area is characterized by shifting sands and intricate wetlands, notably around Lighthouse Bayou and Richardson Hammock. On the eastern edge, the settlement at Indian Pass sits adjacent to the narrow opening of Indian Lagoon, a critical interface for local maritime activity. Inland from Money Beach, a network of small watercourses including Money Bayou and Depot Creek drain through low-lying terrain. Several small islands, such as Blacks Island, Conch Island, and Pig Island, are scattered across the protected bay waters. Beyond the southern point, the Cape San Blas Shoals extend into the gulf, marking a significant navigational hazard.
