2019 Map of Montauk Point OE E

About this map

Montauk Point serves as the focal point for this maritime-heavy survey, where the extreme eastern tip of Long Island meets the open Atlantic Ocean. The land is defined by a tight network of coastal roads including Montauk Pkwy and Old Montauk Hwy, which provide access to Money Pond and the surrounding shoreline. Beyond the headlands of False Point, the map transitions into an extensive hydrographic study of the dangerous waters offshore. This 2019 data illustrates the complex underwater topography that has historically challenged mariners, featuring the prominent Great Eastern Rock, Phelps Ledge, and the expansive Endeavor Shoals. The inclusion of Montauk Shoal to the south underscores the area's significance as a transition from the sound to the open sea.
