About this map

Hog Island and its surrounding shoals define this maritime landscape along the North Carolina coast. Situated where the land meets the Atlantic Ocean, the map highlights the intricate shoreline and the hazards of the shallow coastal waters. Significant points such as Juniper Creek Point and North Bluff Point mark the transition from the wetlands of Hyde County to the open sea.

Navigational features are central to this area, with Hog Island Shoal, Gull Rocks, and the underwater hazard of Sevenfoot Patch providing critical detail for those studying coastal change or maritime history. A single terrestrial artery, Nc 1164, reaches into the northwest corner of the map, suggesting the limit of coastal development in this environmentally sensitive region during the early twenty-first century.
