About this map

Tangier Island stands as a resilient settlement in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay, defined by its intricate network of ridges and tidal guts. The community is concentrated along Main Ridge Rd and West Ridge Rd, with the primary settlement of Tangier surrounded by specialized maritime features like Mailboat Harbor, Fishing Gut, and Oyster Creek Gut. The geography here is a complex mix of land and water, where named rises like Queen Ridge and Canton Ridge provide essential elevation above the surrounding marshes.
