1979 Map of Sea Island

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The complex marshlands and barrier island geography of the Georgia coast are revealed in this late 1970s orthophotomap. Saint Simons Island and Sea Island dominate the landscape, separated by the winding Blackbank River and expansive tidal flats. On the larger island, the small settlements of German Village and Harrington sit amidst dense vegetation, while the historic site of Bloody Marsh points to the area's colonial military history. The interplay of water and land is documented through bathymetric soundings and the clear delineation of shifting sands at Pelican Spit and Goulds Inlet.
