1952 Map of South Ponte Vedra Beach

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Guana River State Wildlife Management Area dominates this coastal landscape, showing a complex network of wetlands and tidal estuaries between the mainland and the dunes. The map illustrates the narrow barrier peninsula where South Ponte Vedra Beach sits, flanked by the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Guana River to the west. This mid-century survey documents a transition period for the Florida coast, where maritime activity is evident at Cook Landing and Booth Landing along the Intracoastal Waterway. To the south, the Tolomato River splits around several named landforms, including Pine Island and Medicis Island. Inland, the presence of a Flowing Well near the shoreline suggests the local importance of freshwater access in this salt-marsh environment, while Shell Bluff Landing serves as a reminder of the long-standing use of these waterways for navigation and trade.
