2019 Map of Manns Harbor

About this map

Mashoes and the surrounding coastal wetlands of Dare County define this aquatic landscape where the Albemarle Sound meets the Croatan Sound. The area is characterized by intricate waterways and marshlands, including The Frying Pan, Lichue Gut, and Hooker Gut. Large-scale infrastructure connects these isolated landmasses to the Outer Banks, notably the William B Umstead Memorial Bridge and the Virginia Dare Memorial Brg, which span the open water from Manns Harbor. This modern survey illustrates the persistent importance of local access routes like Mashoes Rd and Cahoon Rd in navigating the low-lying terrain of Durant Island and the Mashoes Marsh. The map provides a precise record of the shoreline at Reeds Point and Caroon Point, reflecting the intersection of coastal topography and regional transportation networks.
