2024 Map of Dog Island

About this map

Dog Island stands as a barrier between the Gulf of Mexico and the Saint George Sound Intracoastal Waterway in Franklin County. This 2024 survey documents the island's narrow geography, where most development is concentrated on the southwestern end. The local infrastructure is oriented toward the coast, with routes like Gulf Shore Dr and Bayshore Dr skirting the shoreline, while the Dog Island Airport provides a critical transportation link for this isolated landmass. To the northeast, the terrain transitions into the submerged Dog Island Reef. On the mainland at the map's northern edge, a small residential grid appears around Lake Morality Rd and Kenneth B Cope Ave, highlighting the contrast between the developed coastal strip and the maritime expanse of the sound.
