2016 Map of Palacios Point
USGS Topo · Published 2016About this map
Palacios Point and the surrounding coastal waters of the Gulf of Mexico dominate this 2016 survey, where the terrestrial landscape is defined by the thin, protective strip of the Matagorda Peninsula. This environment is a complex intersection of open water and tidal marshland, marked by numerous coastal inlets including Phillips Bayou, Cotton Bayou, and Hillebrandt Bayou. The area serves as a critical maritime corridor, with the Intracoastal Waterway cutting through the center of Matagorda Bay, facilitating commercial navigation behind the barrier islands.
