1981 Map of Goose Island

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

St George Island and its relationship to the Florida panhandle are captured here through a combination of topographic and bathymetric data. The barrier island's eastern portion is dominated by the Dr Julian G Bruce St George Island State Park, where complex coastal features like East Slough and Gap Point define the shore. The connection to the mainland at Eastpoint is maintained by the Bryant Patton Bridge, crossing over Bulkhead Shoal. Within St George Sound, the map details a landscape of shifting sands and reefs, including East Pelican Reef and the namesake Goose Island. The integration of aerial photography from 1976 reveals the exact positioning of Dunes and tidal flats, providing a precise record of the shoreline before subsequent decades of coastal change. The Intracoastal Waterway cuts a straight path through the sound, illustrating the importance of this sheltered passage for maritime transit.
