2015 Map of Marco Island OE W

About this map

The Gulf of Mexico dominates this coastal survey, where the open water meets the barrier islands of Collier County. The map details the delicate transition between the gulf and the Florida coastline, specifically focusing on the southern reaches of Keewaydin Is and the prominent South Point. This 2015 perspective illustrates the modern coastal geography where the Key West-Marco Island Fry traverses the maritime corridor. Because this is a coastal quadrangle largely centered over water, it highlights the navigational relationship between Marco Island and the neighboring keys. Researchers will find the exact maritime boundaries and landform extents as they existed in the mid-2010s, providing a baseline for studying shoreline change and coastal development in the Ten Thousand Islands region.
