2019 Map of Roanoke Island NE

About this map

The Outer Banks of Dare County are defined here by the thin ribbon of land separating the Atlantic Ocean from the intricate wetlands of Roanoke Sound. This landscape is centered on the coastal settlement of Nags Head and the transition into the protected expanse of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore. The map documents the modern infrastructure connecting these barrier islands, including the Melvin R Daniels Bridge and Roanoke Sound Bridge, which facilitate travel across the sound to Roanoke Island. Further south, the terrain dissolves into the Bodie Island Marshes and a series of small landforms like Cedar Island and Headquarters Island. Along the oceanfront, local residential and access routes such as S Virginia Dare Trl and S Old Oregon trace the shoreline through Whalebone and the residential area of Seven Sisters.
