2019 Map of North of Port Isabel SW
USGS Topo · Published 2019About this map
Padre Island forms a narrow barrier between the coastal wetlands and the open Gulf of Mexico in this section of Cameron County. The landscape is dominated by the intricate interplay of tidal flats and shifting sands, where the shoreline is defined by features like La Punta Larga and the small settlement of Los Tanques. This 2019 survey documents the coastal morphology before major environmental shifts, showing the delicate boundary where the island's eastern beach meets the sea. For those studying the geography of the lower Texas coast, the map provides a precise look at the uninhabited reaches of the barrier island system and the expansive maritime boundary of Texas.
