2011 Map of Pine Beach

About this map

Bon Secour Bay and the Gulf of Mexico define the narrow peninsula of this Baldwin County shoreline, where a network of coastal lakes and bayous creates a complex water-bound landscape. Early 21st-century residential developments like Palmetto Beach, Cedar Grove, and Pine Beach are shown laid out along the thin strip of land separating the bay from the gulf. The coastal geography is marked by several distinctive landforms, including Shell Banks and Edith Hammock to the west, and a series of points such as Eugene Point, Sheephead Point, and Childress Point that reach into the brackish waters. Transport through the area is anchored by Mobile St and Pine Beach Rd, which provide access to secluded water bodies like Gator Lake and the expansive Little Lagoon to the east.
