Galveston Island terminates at its southwestern tip here, where the waters of West Bay meet the open Gulf of Mexico through the narrow San Luis Pass. This coastal boundary area between Galveston and Brazoria counties captures the modern residential layout of communities like Bay Harbor and the development at West Beach. The transition from the sheltered waters of Red Fish Cove to the beach-facing properties along San Luis Pass Rd and Bay Breeze Dr reflects the ongoing evolution of this barrier island landscape. The map emphasizes the maritime and tidal nature of the region, detailing the shifting inlets and coastal roads that define the area's geography as it appeared in the mid-2010s.
