1957 Map of Savannah Beach South

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Tybee Island meets the Atlantic Ocean at the mid-century mark in this survey of Georgia's coastline. The coastal community of Savannah Beach is centered at the northern edge of the map, showing the established grid of streets and buildings near the South End of the island. Much of the landscape is defined by the fluid boundary between land and sea, with extensive Tidal Flats and winding waterways like Tybee Creek and Horse Pen Creek dissecting the salt marshes. This edition incorporates bathymetric data from 1957, providing depth soundings and submerged topography that reveal the shifting shoals and underwater character of the Georgia shore before the development of later decades.
