About this map

The coastal waters of Baffin Bay define this 2019 survey, where the brackish inlets of Cayo del Grullo and Laguna Salada intersect the shorelines of Kleberg and Kenedy counties. This landscape is characterized by its dynamic coastal features, including the prominent Neubauer Point and the shifting sands of Sandy Hook. The small settlement of Loyola Beach serves as a primary point of human activity along the northern inlet, connected to the interior by a network of farm-to-market roads like FM 628 and FM 771.

Tracing the coastline reveals a series of named hazards and landmarks, such as Neubauer Rocks and the marshes surrounding Drum Point. To the south, the map details the mouth of Laguna de los Olmos and the terrain at Pie de Gallo, illustrating the complex hydrology where freshwater drainages like Arana Cr meet the saltier bay. This document captures the modern state of South Texas ranch and coastal lands, showing the intersection of rural roads and the vast tidal estuaries of the region.
