2013 Map of Oak Island

About this map

Oak Island serves as the primary settlement on this portion of the Texas coast, situated where the W Fork Double Bayou meets the eastern shore of Trinity Bay. This landscape is defined by its transition from the tidal waters of the bay to the low-lying coastal plains, dissected by the winding channels of the E Fork Double Bayou and the main Double Bayou. The area supports significant energy infrastructure, notably the offshore North Fishers Reef Gas Field and the inland Double Bayou Gas Field. Local history is anchored by the Crook Cem and Godfrey Cem, while the Anahuac Channel and Trinity River mark the northern limits of this coastal region. Several distinct geographic markers such as Round Point, Ash Point, and Black Point punctuate the shoreline, providing essential reference points for the maritime and industrial activities that characterize this corner of Chambers County.
