About this map

Pittsburg and Bay Point anchor the southern shoreline of this survey, where the industrialized Suisun Bay coast transitions into a complex delta landscape. The southern half is defined by residential expansion and infrastructure, featuring the sprawling grounds of Camp Stoneman and the Delta View Golf Course. Water management is central to the area's geography, with the Mokelumne Aqueduct and Contra Costa Canal cutting through the landscape to support the region's growth.

North across the waters of Honker Bay, the terrain shifts to a tidal network of marshes and low-lying islands including Wheeler Island and Hammond Island. This area is characterized by historic river access points like Duttons Landing and Palmetto Landing along Montezuma Slough. The contrast between the dense street grids of Shore Acres and the remote, slough-carved wetlands to the north illustrates the dual nature of this Suisun Bay environment.
