1952 Map of South Ponte Vedra Beach

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Tolomato River and the Guana River define the narrow, elongated landscape of coastal St. Johns County, running parallel to the Atlantic Ocean. This map captures the region in the early 1950s, showing a series of landings that reflect the local reliance on water transport and fishing, including Cook Landing, Spanish Landing, and Booth Landing. Much of the interior terrain is dedicated to the Guana River State Wildlife Management Area, preserving a complex network of marshes, islands like Pine Island, and tidal creeks such as Stokes Creek. The small settlement at South Ponte Vedra Beach sits on the barrier strip, marked by a Flowing Well and the nearby Intracoastal Waterway. This survey provides a look at the coastal infrastructure before late-century development, preserving the locations of historical sites like Shell Bluff Landing.
