2015 Map of Suwannee

About this map

Suwannee sits at the intricate transition where the Suwannee River meets the salt marshes of the Florida coast. This network of tidal creeks and alluvial islands, including Bradford Island and Goodson Island, creates a complex amphibious landscape just above the Levy Co line. The settlement itself is clustered near Salt Creek and Harris Creek, defined by a grid of local roads like SE 228th Ave that navigate the narrow fingers of land. Beyond the immediate river mouth, the geography shifts into the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico, marked by submerged hazards and navigational landmarks such as Suwannee Reef and Halfmoon Reef. The map reveals the intricate water passages essential for local navigation, from Magnesia Pass to Wadley Pass, illustrating how the delta's shifting hydrology dictates the placement of homes and harbor infrastructure.
