About this map

Pamlico Sound dominates the southeastern quadrant of this coastal survey, where the low-lying marshlands of Hyde County meet the open water. The landscape is defined by a network of drainage canals and natural waterways like Broad Creek and Waupopin Creek, reflecting the area's intricate hydrologic management. A distinct line of prominent landmarks, including Juniper Swamp Point, Shad Point, and Gibbs Point, marks the shifting interface between the land and Berrys Bay.

Transport and infrastructure are concentrated along the southwestern corridor, anchored by the Hyde County Airport and a handful of local routes such as Swamp Rd and Goshen Back Rd. The map also captures the administrative boundary between Hyde Co and Dare Co, running through the northern reaches of the sound. This 2022 survey provides a clear look at the contemporary coastal geography of this tide-influenced region.
