1949 Map of Styron Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Portsmouth Bank S stretches diagonally across this mid-century maritime survey, separating the volatile Atlantic Ocean from the protected waters of Core Sound. This narrow barrier island environment is defined by its small tidal features and maritime infrastructure, notably the Coast Guard Sta and the Telephone Line that runs the length of the banks. The map reveals the intricate nature of the Inner Banks' sounds, where Hunting Quarters and Styron Bay provide shelter behind marshy points like Steep Point.
