1970 Map of Point Washington

About this map

Point Washington sits at the northern edge of this coastal survey, where the Intracoastal Waterway cuts through the Florida panhandle near Tucker Bayou and Wesley Bayou. The landscape transitions from the dense wetlands of Devils Swamp and the drainage of Peach Creek in the north toward the white sands of the Gulf of Mexico. Along the southern shoreline, the map reveals the early development of coastal communities such as Seagrove Beach and Inlet Beach, separated by a series of distinct coastal dune lakes.
