About this map

Tybee Island serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, where the Savannah River meets the Atlantic Ocean. The map captures a moment of transition for the northern end of the island, highlighting the historic installation at Fort Screven and the nearby Tybee Lighthouse. Shoreline engineering is evident through the North Jetty and South Jetty structures designed to manage the river's mouth, while the interior of the island is crisscrossed by tidal waterways like Horse Pen Creek and Crab Creek.
