About this map

Saquish Beach and the narrow spit of land leading to Gurnet Point dominate the terrestrial portion of this coastal survey. This area of Plymouth County, situated at the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, is defined by its low-lying marshes and maritime hazards. The map illustrates the fragile topography of the Saquish Neck Marshes and the elevation of the Plum Hills, which rise above the shifting sands. Beyond the shoreline, the survey identifies several significant underwater features that have long challenged coastal navigation, including High Pine Ledge, Howland Ledge, and Farnham Rock. The small road network, featuring Saquish Beach Blvd, King Arthur Rd, and Gurnet Rd, provides insight into the accessibility and residential layout of this exposed coastal community during the early twenty-first century.
