About this map

Southern Shores and the village of Duck occupy a narrow, developed barrier strip between the Atlantic Ocean and the shallow waters of the Currituck Sound in this early 1980s orthophotomap. Produced by the U.S. Geological Survey using 1977 aerial photography, this map visualizes the residential expansion along the Outer Banks before the significant late-century building boom. Small settlements like Sea Crest and the residential area at Martin Point are visible, alongside community landmarks such as a local Fire House and a coastal Campground. The landscape is defined by the thin peninsula’s vulnerability, with Jean Guite Cr cutting into the sound side, illustrating the delicate balance of coastal development in Dare County.
