2023 Map of Public Landing

About this map

The eastern edge of Worcester County meets the brackish waters of Chincoteague Bay in this 2023 survey. This coastal landscape is defined by the transition from the forested interior near the Pocomoke River to the marshes and coves of the Atlantic coast. Small inland settlements like Newark, Wesley, and Cedartown are connected by a network of rural routes, including Cedartown Rd and Basket Switch Rd. The map illustrates the local geography of necks and points, such as Saint Lawrence Neck and Cropper Neck, which divide numerous creeks and branches like Icehouse Branch and Robins Creek.
