Laguna Madre dominates this coastal landscape, where the shallow hypersaline lagoon separates the Texas mainland from the narrow barrier of Padre Island. The map documents a critical stretch of the Intracoastal Waterway as it cuts through the tidal flats and sandbars. Named features like El Toro, Potrero, and Lopeno mark the low-lying island landforms and peninsulas that emerge from the shifting waters and dredge spoil. At the southern edge, Banderia Point provides a specific navigational reference for the intricate shoreline. This 2010 survey reflects the dynamic hydrography of Kenedy County, illustrating how the shipping channel and natural barriers interact within this specialized maritime environment.
