About this map

South Ponte Vedra Beach occupies the narrow barrier strand between the Atlantic Ocean and the sprawling marshlands of the Guana River. This coastal landscape is defined by its north-south alignment, where S Ponte Vedra Blvd serves as the primary spine for residential development along the shore. To the west, the river widens into Guana Lake, separated from the main channel of the Tolomato River by a complex network of wetlands and islands.

Several prominent landforms rise from the tidal marshes, including Pine Island, Little Pine Island, and Medicis Island. These features, along with winding tidal passages like Capo Cr and Smith Cr, characterize the transition between the coastal dunes and the deeper navigation channel of the Intracoastal Waterway. On the western mainland, local roads such as Stokes Landing Rd and Deerfield Rd provide access to the banks of Stokes Creek.
