2010 Map of Maria Estella Well

About this map

Old Tajos Ranch stands as the primary land-based marker in this coastal landscape along the western reaches of the Laguna Madre. This 2010 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures a region defined by its dynamic transition between sandy plains and the shallow waters of the hypersaline lagoon. The intricate shoreline is punctuated by features like Mesquite Rincon, while small landforms such as Tres Marias and the Calabazas Islands emerge from the water to the north. The area is characterized by sparse development and winding tracks, reflecting a remote cattle-ranching and maritime environment typical of this segment of the Texas coast.
