2015 Map of New Inlet

About this map

Saint George Island and Little Saint George Island dominate this coastal survey, separated by the narrow passage of Government Cut. These barrier islands buffer Apalachicola Bay from the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico, forming a critical physical boundary along the Florida panhandle. The map captures the delicate shoreline at New Inlet, where the shifting sands and tidal forces of the gulf meet the sound. While much of the terrain remains undeveloped, the inclusion of Leisure Ln indicates localized infrastructure on the eastern portion of Saint George Island. This document provides a precise record of the land-water interface and the navigable channels essential for maritime access to the bay during the early 21st century.
