About this map

Gardiners Island stands as a prominent feature in this coastal survey, showcasing a complex of internal water bodies such as Home Pond and Tobaccolot Pond, alongside the secluded Gardiners Island Cem. The island’s topography includes Whale Hill and the sandy stretch of Eastern Plain, extending toward Eastern Plain Point. To the south, the narrow land bridge of Napeague connects the mainland toward Montauk Long Island, bordered by the expansive waters of Napeague Bay and Napeague Harbor.

The map details the transitional landscape of the Hither Hills and the sandy reaches of Napeague Beach. Coastal features like Cartwright Island and Cartwright Shoals mark the southern approach to the island, while local transit is traced via the Old Montauk Hwy and Hwy To Napeague. This 2016 record captures the intricate shoreline of the East Hampton vicinity, from the inland Fresh Pond to the harbor-side settlement at Lazy Point.
