2024 Map of Chancy Bay

About this map

Lake Okeechobee dominates the western expanse of this shoreline study along the boundary of Okeechobee and Martin Counties. The map documents the critical water-management infrastructure and transport corridors that define this portion of the Florida coast, where the Florida National Scenic Trl follows the eastern rim of the lake. The interior landscape is marked by a complex grid of drainage canals and agricultural plots typical of the region's reclaimed wetlands. Along the eastern edge, the Florida East Coast railway runs parallel to major highway routes, serving as a primary artery for the area. Small aviation and residential footprints, such as the Brady Ranch Airport and the development around Chukker Cir, show the localized human imprint on this otherwise hydrologically managed environment near Chancy Bay.
