1952 Map of Palacios SE

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The narrow stretch of the Matagorda Peninsula separates the open Gulf of Mexico from the shallow reaches of Matagorda Bay in this 1952 survey. This coastal environment is defined by its complex tidal hydrology, featuring numerous inlets such as Maverick Bayou, Big Bayou, and Long Bayou that cut through the sandy barrier. Along the northern shoreline, the Intracoastal Waterway provides a protected passage for maritime traffic, passing just south of Mad Island Lake.
