About this map

Saint George Island dominates this coastal survey, stretching across the Gulf of Mexico as a critical barrier between the open sea and the protected waters of Saint George Sound. This narrow strip of land exhibits a developed grid on its western end, including residential thoroughfares like W Gulf Beach Dr and E Gorrie Dr, while the eastern reaches toward Gap Point remain characterized by tidal features like East Slough and East Cove.

On the mainland, the settlement of Eastpoint sits at the northern edge of the Intracostal Waterway. Local history is anchored at the Eastpoint Cem near the junction of Otter Slide Rd and Tip Tucker Rd. The map also details the complex aquatic environment of Apalachicola Bay, showing the bridge connection via the Bryant Grady Patton Brg and numerous coastal landmarks such as Shell Point and the namesake Goose Island.
