Dauphin Island stretches across the northern portion of this coastal survey, serving as a vital barrier between the Mississippi Sound and the open Gulf of Mexico. This maritime landscape is defined by the thin strip of land where Bienville Blvd provides the primary transit route through the island's terrain. The map illustrates the contemporary shoreline and political boundary of Mobile County, highlighting the vulnerability and persistence of this narrow landform against the Gulf. As part of a 2014 study, the chart documents the interplay of local infrastructure and the surrounding waters, offering a precise view of the island's geography before further coastal shifts or development changes occur.
