Bon Secour and the surrounding Baldwin County coastline are defined by a complex network of bayous and rivers leading into Oyster Bay. This early 21st-century survey documents the transition from maritime and agricultural roots to a modern resort landscape. While the Bon Secour River and Boggy Branch show the natural hydrology of the area, the map also captures an extensive energy infrastructure with numerous gas fields, such as the South Foley Gas Field and Brights Creek Gas Field, interspersed with residential growth. Local aviation and tourism hubs are prominent, including the Jack Edwards Airport and the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo. Near the shore of Little Lagoon, the Wallace Cemetery serves as a genealogical marker amidst the developing vacation properties and recreational sites like the Waterville USA Water Park and Craft Farms Resort.
