1970 Map of Point Washington

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Point Washington sits at the northern edge of this coastal landscape, situated near Tucker Bayou and the winding Peach Creek. The area is defined by its transition from the dense wetlands of Devils Swamp to the white sands of the Gulf shore. The Intracoastal Waterway cuts a straight path through the northern terrain, contrasting with the irregular natural drainage of Roaring Creek and Tenmile Branch. Along the southern coastline, small developments like Seagrove Beach and Inlet Beach represent early steps in the regional shift toward coastal tourism. Numerous coastal dune lakes, including Eastern Lake, Deer Lake, and Camp Creek Lake, pockmark the shoreline, while a network of Jeep Trails provides the primary access to the interior. The presence of Pt Washington Base A suggests a history of surveying and coordinated infrastructure in this corner of Walton County.
