Baffin Bay and the interconnected waters of the Texas Gulf Coast define this low-lying coastal landscape south of Corpus Christi. The sheet illustrates the intricate transition from land to sea along the western reaches of Alazan Bay, where the shoreline is fragmented by numerous inlets and small peninsulas. Notable landforms including Kleberg Point and Starvation Point extend into the shallow bay waters, illustrating the subtle topography of this coastal environment. The boundary between Kleberg and Kenedy counties cuts across the southern waters of the bay, marking a jurisdictional division in an area otherwise dominated by salt marshes and tidal flats. The presence of Cayo del Infiernillo and East Kleberg Point highlights the various named geographic features that have historically aided navigation and landmark identification along this sparsely populated stretch of the coastline.
