2012 Map of Elliott Key

About this map

Elliott Key and the surrounding islands separate Biscayne Bay from the Atlantic Ocean in this coastal survey. The barrier island chain is detailed through numerous landing points and topographical markers, including University Dock and Elliott Key Park Harbor Light 2. To the south, a cluster of smaller islands like Adams Key, Porgy Key, and Totten Key are divided by narrow channels such as Hurricane Creek and Caesar Creek. The maritime character of the region is defined by extensive underwater features, from Bache Shoal and Margot Fish Shoal to the protective line of Long Reef and Ajax Reef. This map captures the intricate geography of the Florida Keys before significant modern alterations, highlighting named points like Sea Grape Point and Billys Point that have long served as landmarks for local navigation.
