2022 Map of Kure Beach

About this map

Pleasure Island and the coastal marshes of the Cape Fear River define this barrier island landscape along the Atlantic coast. This modern survey illustrates the complex maritime geography where the river meets the Atlantic Ocean, featuring the primary transit routes such as the Southport - Fort Fisher Ferry and the Bald Head Island Ferry. The map details the residential grids of Kure Beach at the northern edge and the harbor of Southport to the west, separated by a vast network of sounds and channels including Snows Marsh and The Basin.
