About this map

Fort Matanzas National Monument occupies a strategic position along the Atlantic coast, protecting the historic stone fortification of Fort Matanzas on Rattlesnake Island. This coastal survey highlights the intricate network of tidal waterways and barrier islands where the Matanzas River meets the Atlantic Ocean at the Matanzas Inlet. The landscape is a mix of protected federal lands and established coastal communities, connected by the Claude Varn Bridge and the scenic corridor of Old A1A.

Residential developments such as Summer Haven and Marineland are situated between the oceanfront and the Intracoastal Waterway, showing the modern footprint of tourism and settlement. Further south, the map transitions into the marshy expanse of Pellicer Flats and Hemming Point, eventually reaching the planned community of Palm Coast. Detailed street names like Barrataria Dr and Gene Johnson Rd provide granular data for local historians and researchers tracking 21st-century property lines.
