About this map

Barnstable and Yarmouth Port anchor this coastal landscape, situated between the Atlantic Ocean and a dense network of freshwater bodies. The central interior is dominated by the extensive Wequaquet Lake, surrounded by smaller features like Shallow Pond, Hathaway Ponds, and No Bottom Pond. This 2015 data reflects the established modern infrastructure of the mid-Cape, including the Cape Cod Community Coll campus and the sprawling Barnstable Municipal Airport-Boardman/ Polando Field.

Drainage patterns are clearly defined by Scorton Creek and Mill Creek, which emphasize the peninsula's complex relationship between its sandy interior and the sea. The layout of major arteries like Iyannough Rd and Falmouth Rd demonstrates the area's development as a primary regional hub for transportation and education, while numerous family-named landmarks and smaller ponds suggest the legacy of earlier seasonal and residential settlement.
