2013 Map of Exmore

About this map

Exmore sits as the central hub of this Eastern Shore landscape, where the Lankford Hwy corridor connects a string of historic villages and coastal settlements. The map illustrates a distinctive maritime economy along the Chesapeake Bay side and the Atlantic-facing marshes, evidenced by landing points like Miles Wharf and Shields Wharf on Occohannock Creek. To the east, Willis Wharf provides access to the Machipongo River and Upshur Bay, highlighting the peninsula's narrow geography where land and water are tightly integrated.
