2025 Map of Cape San Blas

About this map

Cape San Blas and the Saint Joseph Peninsula form a narrow, shifting barrier system separating the waters of Saint Joseph Bay from the open Gulf of America. This coastal landscape is defined by its complex hydrology, where Lighthouse Bayou and Pig Bayou cut into the sandy hammocks of the peninsula. To the north, Richardson Hammock provides a high-ground anchor amidst the salt marshes and tidal flats. The eastern portion of the map centers on the small coastal community of Money Beach and the transition into Indian Lagoon via the narrow passage at Indian Pass. Small landforms like Blacks Island and Conch Island dot the bay, while the Florida Circumnavigational Paddling Trl follows the shoreline, tracing the interface between the maritime forests and the Gulf coast beaches.
