About this map

The Caloosahatchee River serves as the primary artery for this portion of Hendry County, carrying the Okeechobee Waterway Canoe Trl past historical settlements and modern expansions. To the west, the community of Fort Denaud marks a historic crossing point, while the modern planned residential layout of Port Labelle dominates the northeastern corner. Agricultural land use is evident in the central and southern reaches, defined by large tracts like Bob Paul Groves and the specialized infrastructure of the Bob Paul Airport.

Southward from the river, the landscape transitions into a network of drainage and transport including the Roberts Canal and the Okaloacoochee Branch. Small industrial and municipal hubs are concentrated near LaBelle, featuring the La Belle Municipal Airport and a grid of industrial loops. This 2023 survey provides a contemporary view of the region's balance between its citrus heritage, rural residential patches in Sears, and managed waterways.
