2025 Map of South of Palacios Point

USGS Topo · Published 2025

About this map

Matagorda Bay and the winding channel of the Intracoastal Waterway dominate the northern margins of this 2025 survey, where the Texas coastline meets the open sea. This coastal landscape is defined by the shifting interface of water and land, characterized by the tidal inlets of Greens Bayou and the expansive reach of the Gulf of America to the south. The mapping reflects a specialized maritime environment where navigation and hydrography are central to the region's character, providing a precise record of the shoreline and maritime passages before the inevitable changes brought by coastal erosion and rising sea levels. The sparsity of terrestrial landmarks underscores the isolation of these barrier islands and marshlands, making it an essential reference for understanding the current state of Matagorda County's vulnerable gulf-front geography.
