2023 Map of Cape Vincent South

About this map

Lake Ontario defines this corner of Jefferson County, where the St. Lawrence River begins its journey. The coastline is deeply indented by bays such as Wilson Bay and Mud Bay, separated by prominent landforms like Tibbetts Point and Dablon Point. Just offshore, Grenadier Island and Little Grenadier Island guard the entrance to Basin Harbor, reflecting the area's long maritime importance. Inland, the landscape transitions from the agricultural fields near Indian Hill to the complex wetlands surrounding Fox Creek and Kents Creek. Historic sites and local landmarks are scattered throughout the region, including Saint Vincent de Paul Cem near the town of Cape Vincent and Fox Creek Cem further south. Narrow land bridges like Carrying Place and The Isthmus connect the mainland to Point Peninsula, illustrating the unique geography that has shaped local transport and settlement patterns for generations.
