About this map

The Minna Neger Historic Site stands at the northern edge of this coastal landscape, overlooking a series of bays and inlets that define the eastern geography of St. John. The settlement pattern centers around the protected waters of Coral Harbor and Coral Bay, where the communities of Emmaus, Carolina, and Palestina are situated. This 2013 survey illustrates the modern road network, including The Marsh's Scenic Hwy and The Gerda Marsh Dr, which connect interior points like Bordeaux to the shoreline.

The coastline is exceptionally complex, punctuated by landforms such as Ram Head and Leinster Point, and numerous aquatic features like Hurricane Hole and Leinster Bay. Historic estate names such as Annaberg, Fredriksdal, and Hermitage reflect the island's colonial past, while newer developments at Calabash Boom and Concordia show the continued evolution of the residential landscape. Smaller islands like Flanagan Island and Leduck Island sit just offshore in the Caribbean Sea.
