2025 Map of South of Potrero Lopeno NE

About this map

Padre Island National Seashore dominates this coastal landscape in Kenedy County, where the shift between the barrier island and the open waters of the Gulf of America is documented in high detail. The map illustrates the complex, shifting topography of Padre Island, characterized by extensive sand flats, tidal inlets, and a network of small, unnamed lagoons. The absence of permanent human structures or roads underscores the region's character as a protected ecological zone, preserved to allow natural barrier island processes to occur without interference. This study provides a precise view of the shoreline and maritime boundary as they existed in the mid-2020s, showing the intricate relationship between the wind-swept island and the sea.
