2023 Map of Deale

About this map

The western shores of the Chesapeake Bay define this region, where tidal inlets and marshy creek mouths create a highly articulated coastline. Galesville and Deale serve as central points for a landscape characterized by numerous small waterfront communities like Avalon Shores and Franklin Manor-on-the-Bay. The map reveals the intricate drainage patterns of the coastal plain, with features such as The Swamp and Lerch Creek Marsh punctuating the low-lying terrain.
