About this map

The Suwannee River carves a complex delta through this coastal environment where the Dixie Co and Levy Co line meets the Gulf of Mexico. The landscape is dominated by tidal marshes and winding waterways such as the Gopher River, East Pass, and the intricate channels of Dan May Creek. This modern survey illustrates the natural barriers of the Florida coastline, from the inland expanse of California Swamp to the offshore Lone Cabbage Reef.

Navigation and local access are defined by the river’s path, featuring named landmarks like U-Lee Bend and Turkey Island. While road networks like NW Co Rd 347 and Co Rd 349 reach into the upper reaches of the map, the southern portion remains a wilderness of named islands including Hog Island and Tiger Island. The presence of the Lower Suwannee River Trl highlights the area's significance for modern recreational water travel through these historic wetlands.
