About this map

Cape Canaveral and Cocoa Beach occupy the narrow barrier island between the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian River Lagoon in this modern topographic study. The map documents the dense residential development and street grids that define this coastal stretch, from South Cocoa Beach up to the northern reaches of the peninsula. Along the western shoreline, the intricate hydrology of the lagoon is visible, featuring names like Catfish Creek Houseboat Cut and Shortys Pocket.

Oceanic features are also recorded, including the Walter L Hudson, Junior Artificial Reef located offshore. On the lagoon side, numerous small landmasses such as Hail Island, Shell Point, and Four Islands provide a detailed look at the estuarine environment. Significant local thoroughfares like the W Merritt Island Cswy and Minutemen Cswy connect these beachfront communities to the Florida mainland.
