The Core Banks barrier islands separate the vast Atlantic Ocean from the intricate marshlands and sounds of Carteret County in this late 1940s survey. This maritime landscape is defined by the narrow strip of Portsmouth and its reliance on navigation through Core Sound and the Cross Shoal Channel. The shoreline is heavily indented by tidal features like Styron Bay and Hunting Quarters, where smaller waterways such as Glover Cr and Annis Run meet the sound.
