2019 Map of Engelhard East

About this map

Engelhard serves as the primary coastal hub on this eastern Hyde County landscape, situated where the drainage of Waupopin Creek meets the tidal waters of Far Creek. The area is defined by its low-lying marshes and numerous maritime landmarks along the edge of the Pamlico Sound. To the east, a series of distinct geographic features like Juniper Swamp Point, Shad Point, and Pingleton Point trace the jagged coastline. The Hyde County Airport sits centrally among the wetlands, while local infrastructure like Swamp Rd and Goshen Back Rd provide access to the interior. The map further delineates the watery boundaries of Berrys Bay and Otter Creek, illustrating a delicate interface between the mainland and the sound, where the county line separates Hyde from Dare in the northeastern waters.
