2022 Map of Long Shoal Point

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Coastal wetlands and expansive sounds dominate this 2022 survey of the North Carolina shoreline, where the boundary between Dare and Hyde counties runs through the waters of Pains Bay. The landscape is defined by its indented coastline, featuring distinctive landforms such as Long Shoal Point and Pains Point. Navigation and geography in this area are oriented around the shallow waters of Long Shoal and the protected inlets of Parched Corn Bay. Inland, the terrain is largely inaccessible marshland, pierced only by Highway 264 and the historical alignment of Pamlico Rd. Local identifiers like Rawls Island and Rawls Point reflect the enduring family names associated with these remote coastal reaches. The map illustrates a fragile environment where narrow waterways like Muddy Cr and Pains Creek thread through a landscape primarily shaped by the tides.
