About this map

Ft Matanzas stands at the northern edge of this coastal survey, guarding the entrance to the Matanzas Inlet where the Matanzas River meets the Atlantic Ocean. During this mid-1940s period, the Florida coastline here shows a transition from historical defensive sites to burgeoning tourist and marine research destinations like Marineland and Summer Haven. The landscape is defined by the narrow strip of barrier island and the parallel course of the Intracoastal Waterway, which carves through the marshlands and lagoons inland from the coast.
