About this map

The coastal village of Suwannee serves as the focal point for this 2018 survey, positioned where the Suwannee River meets the Gulf of Mexico. The landscape is a complex network of brackish waterways and low-lying landforms, including the vast California Swamp and numerous islands like Bumblebee Island and Bradford Island. The map details the transition from the forested interior, accessed by the Dixie Main Line Rd, to the tidal flats and salt marshes of the coast.

Navigational features are prominent, illustrating the maritime character of the region through labels such as Magnesia Pass, Wadley Pass, and Alligator Pass. Offshore, the survey identifies hazardous underwater features including Suwannee Reef and Halfmoon Reef. The settlement pattern in the town of Suwannee shows a dense grid of local roads like Demory Ln and SE 228 St near the Post Office, reflecting its role as a fishing and recreational hub at the river's mouth.
