About this map

Stumpy Point sits at the edge of the vast Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge, marking a transition between the coastal wetlands and the expansive waters of the Pamlico Sound. This map shows the isolated character of the Dare County coastline, where the settlement is defined by its proximity to Stumpy Point Bay and the surrounding marshes. Cultural details for the local community include the Shiloh Ch and an adjacent Cem, reflecting the deep-rooted maritime heritage of this North Carolina fishing village. The coastal geometry is defined by prominent features such as Old Point, Sandy Point, and Wild Boar Point. With much of the interior protected as a wildlife refuge, the map emphasizes the relationship between the sound's shallow waters, noted by a Project Depth 7 Feet corridor, and the fragile terrestrial ecosystem of the outer banks region.
