2012 Map of Green Point

About this map

Gulf of Mexico tides dictate the landscape along this Franklin County coast, where the small settlement of Green Point anchors a network of winding waterways and low-lying marshes. The topography is defined by a series of points and bluffs, including High Bluff, Royal Bluff, and Marsh Point, which break the shoreline between complex drainage systems like Whiskey George Creek and Trout Creek. These coastal features suggest a history of maritime navigation and local fishing, with intricate inlets such as Cash Bayou, Carrin Bayou, and East Bayou providing shelter from the open sea.
