2022 Map of Great Machipongo Inlet
USGS Topo · Published 2022About this map
Hog Island and Cobb Island anchor this coastal survey of the Eastern Shore's barrier island system. The landscape is defined by the complex aquatic network of the Hog Island Bay, where the Great Machipongo Inlet and North Channel facilitate the movement of tides between the mainland marshes and the open Atlantic Ocean. This 2022 edition documents the shifting shoals and waterways essential to maritime navigation and ecological study, featuring named nautical passages such as Rowes Hole Channel and Second Channel. To the south, the boundary of this littoral environment is marked by the Sand Shoal Inlet, illustrating the dynamic nature of Virginia's Atlantic coastline.
