2022 Map of Crane Islands NW OE E

About this map

Mustang Island defines the northwestern corner of this coastal survey, where the settlement of Port Aransas meets the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico. This map provides a specialized focus on the offshore expanse of the Gulf, charting the maritime territory under the jurisdiction of Corpus Christi. The cartography emphasizes the relationship between the fragile barrier island ecosystem and the expansive marine environment of Nueces County. While the landmass is concentrated in the extreme northwest, the inclusion of municipal boundaries extending into the sea illustrates the coastal reach of mainland governance over these waters. It is an essential document for understanding contemporary shoreline boundaries and the maritime approach to one of the most significant ports on the Texas coast.
