About this map

Jekyll Island is the center of this coastal survey, showcasing its complex network of tidal creeks and marshlands. The island's geography is defined by the Intracoastal Waterway and the Brunswick River, which separate the barrier island from the mainland near Brunswick Point. The map provides detailed road layouts for the island's residential and recreational corridors, including Riverview Dr and N Beachview Dr, while marking key local landmarks such as the Jekyll Island Airport.

Genealogists and local historians will find the DuBignon Cem on the northern end of the island, a site tied to the area's long-standing family estates. Major infrastructure is prominent, including the Sidney Lanier Bridge spanning the water to the north and the M E Thompson Memorial Bridge providing the primary connection across Jekyll Creek. To the south, the island tapers at Jekyll Point, overlooking the meeting of Jekyll Sound and Saint Andrew Sound.
