2013 Map of Mosquito Point

About this map

San Antonio Bay dominates this coastal landscape, where the shifting margins of the Texas Gulf Coast define the geography of Calhoun County. The map details a complex network of marshes and open water, notably around Mosquito Point and the adjacent wetlands. Small landforms like Turnstake Island, Grass Island, and the avian-named Little Bird Island and Big Bird Island serve as critical reference points for navigating these shallow waters. Human activity in this sensitive environment is represented by a few key access points, including Welder Flats Rd and Welder Cliburn Ranch Rd, which lead toward the shoreline. To the south, the Panther Reef Cut provides a clear channel through the submerged reefs, illustrating the ongoing management of coastal waterways for local transit and fishing.
