2024 Map of Fort Morgan NW

About this map

Dauphin Island stretches along the top margin of this quadrangle, represented here at a moment when the barrier island's primary thoroughfare, Bienville Blvd, serves as the spine for coastal settlement. The map focuses predominantly on the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico, providing a clear record of the shoreline's position in 2024. This perspective is particularly valuable for documenting the coastal geography and road infrastructure of Mobile County before further shifting sands or seasonal weather patterns alter the southern edge of the island. The contrast between the thin strip of inhabited land and the expansive marine environment highlights the exposed nature of this Alabama barrier island.
