About this map

Great South Bay dominates this coastal landscape, separating the mainland South Shore communities of Long Island from the fragile barrier of Fire Island. On the northern shore, the residential patterns of Sayville, Bayport, and Blue Point are clearly defined, showing a transition from the dense street grids around the Sayville Post Office to the waterfront estates and inlets. Multiple small waterways like Green Creek, Brown Creek, and Homans Creek drain into the bay, reflecting the area's maritime geography and recreational heritage.

Across the bay, the narrow strip of Fire Island contains distinct seasonal settlements connected by Center Walk, including Cherry Grove and Fire Island Pines. The presence of the Sailors Haven Ferry Terminal and the Sayville Bathing Beach underscores the importance of ferry transport and public shoreline access. For genealogists, the map provides precise locations for Union Cemetery, Saint Ann's Cemetery, and Blue Point Cemetery, which serve as permanent anchors amidst the shifting sands and modern developments of the Suffolk County coast.
