2018 Map of Palm Valley

About this map

The Intracoastal Waterway serves as a defining meridian for this part of coastal Florida, separating the dense residential developments of Ponte Vedra Beach and Palm Valley from the extensive wetlands to the west. On the eastern shore, a complex network of residential streets like Solana Rd and Dolphin Blvd reflects the suburban growth near the Atlantic Ocean. In contrast, the western landscape is dominated by the vast Durbin Swamp and Scrub Ridge, showcasing the region's natural hydrology before it reaches Pablo Creek. Small, distinct nodes of activity appear along the water, including the Palm Valley Landing and the Deep Forest-Airport. This 2018 survey also identifies the southern reaches of Jacksonville and the settlement of Twentymile, documenting the persistent tension between expanding coastal infrastructure and the swampy lowlands of the Cabbage Swamp and Powers Bay.
