2024 Map of Cedar Key

About this map

Cedar Key serves as the focal point of this coastal landscape, situated on Way Key and surrounded by a complex network of marshes, tidal channels, and islands. The area is heavily defined by conservation lands, including the Lower Suwannee National Wildlife Refuge and the Cedar Keys National Wildlife Refuge. The map reveals the intricate water passages critical to the local maritime identity, such as the Main Ship Channel and Northwest Channel, which navigate around features like Rattlesnake Key and the Gomez Keys. Cultural landmarks like the Cedar Key Cem and George T Lewis Airport are visible alongside archaeological points of interest like Shell Mound. The transition from the developed streets of the town to the wilderness areas, such as Cedar Keys Wilderness, illustrates the balance between human settlement and the protected Gulf of Mexico environment.
