2022 Map of Port Lavaca East

About this map

Lavaca Bay and Matagorda Bay meet along this coastal stretch of Calhoun County, where the landscape is defined by the shallow waters of Chocolate Bay and the narrow inlet of Blind Bayou. The settlement pattern follows the shoreline, with Alamo Beach and Magnolia Beach serving as primary coastal anchors. A significant historical footprint remains visible through the cluster of cemeteries along the bay, including Zimmerman Cem, Old Town Cem, and Indianola Cem, which sit near Indianola Island. These sites, along with names like Old Town Lake, point to the area's long-standing maritime history and early Texas settlement. Navigation and coastal geography are marked by distinctive points such as Gallinipper Point and the submerged Sand Point Reef, while the interior is dotted with features like San Luis Springs and the local Big Duke's Place Airport.
