About this map

Pattersquash Island sits isolated within the coastal waters of the South Shore, where the barrier beach meets the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. This 2013 survey of the Brookhaven area shows a landscape defined by the tidal inlets and finger-like peninsulas of Johns Neck, separated by Unkechogue Cr, Johns Neck Cr, and Sheppen Cr.

The residential development near the shoreline is accessed by a network of local roads including Riviera Dr and Peconic Dr, while the significant thoroughfare of William Floyd Pkwy terminates at the shoreline near Smith Point. The map illustrates the contemporary configuration of the barrier islands, with Fire Island Beach Rd tracing the narrow strip of land that shields the inner bays from the open sea.
