About this map

Laguna Atascosa Refuge dominates this coastal Texas landscape, preserving a intricate network of wetlands and tidal flats along the Laguna Atascosa. The survey details a highly specialized environment where land and water meet, featuring numerous small islands such as Gatlin Island and Gabrielson Island buffered by the Intracoastal Waterway. To the south, the expansion of Laguna Vista and the northern reaches of Brownsville show the intersection of residential growth and natural conservation.

Infrastructure like the Port Isabel-Cameron County Airport and a dense system of recreational trails—including the Island Fields Loop and Ocelot Rd—illustrate how the region manages public access alongside protected habitats. Significant water bodies like Laguna de los Patos and Horseshoe Lake punctuate the coastal plain, while prominent elevations like Loma la Jauja provide landmarks above the low-lying marshes.
