2015 Map of Fort Barrancas

About this map

Fort Barrancas stands as a focal point overlooking the waters where Pensacola Bay meets the Gulf of Mexico. This coastal landscape is dominated by the sprawling operations of the Pensacola Naval Air Station, featuring an extensive network of runways and a dedicated fuel farm. Across the Intracoastal Waterway on Santa Rosa Island, the historical grounds of Fort Pickens and the Chasefield Plantation Cemetery offer significant points for genealogical and historical research. Residential developments like Sherman Grove, Pleasant Grove, and Navy Point line the northern shores of Bayou Grande, while the southern reaches are protected as part of the Gulf Islands National Seashore. The map details a complex maritime environment of shifting sands and navigation hazards, including Caucus Shoal and the Middle Ground.
