The coastal transition of the Texas Gulf shore appears in this 2013 topographic study by the United States Geological Survey. Dominated by the intricate hydrography of the Laguna Madre, the landscape features isolated landforms like Rincon de San Jose and the navigational marker at Southeast Point. This map provides a detailed view of the shifting sands and shallow wetlands characteristic of the Kenedy County coastline, offering an important record of the coastal environment before more recent environmental changes. The presence of shallow waters and intricate shoreline patterns reveals the natural barriers that have historically shaped the region's limited development and maritime navigation.
