Cottrell Key and its neighboring mangrove islands define this remote marine landscape where the Gulf of Mexico meets the Atlantic Ocean. The map documents a scattering of small keys and banks northwest of Key West, including the gender-named Man Key and Woman Key alongside the privately held Ballast Key. Navigation remains the primary human activity in these waters, evidenced by the presence of the Intracoastal Waterway and the Northwest Channel in the northeastern corner.
