Matagorda Peninsula separates the open Gulf of Mexico from the sheltered waters of Matagorda Bay in this 2019 coastal survey. This maritime landscape is defined by the Intracoastal Waterway, which cuts a straight line through the bay, facilitating commercial shipping and navigation behind the protective barrier of the peninsula. To the north, the shore is irregular, marked by prominent landforms such as Hotel Point, Rattlesnake Point, and Palacios Point.
