2016 Map of Hatteras OE N

About this map

The Bird Islands emerge as a central feature of this coastal survey, which documents the maritime landscape of the Outer Banks offshore waters. Navigational corridors like Rawlinsons Channel and the Old Rollinson Channel illustrate the intricate routes used by vessels to move between the sound and the open Atlantic Ocean. The seafloor is characterized by a series of named hazards and landmarks, including Clam Shoal, Log Shoal, and the uniquely named Egg Shoal. These features, along with Shark Shoal to the south, highlight the dynamic nature of the shoals and channels that define this part of Dare County. This 2016 record provides a precise look at the shifting underwater topography and established shipping lanes before more recent coastal changes.
