About this map

The coastal margins of San Antonio Bay characterize this portion of the Texas Gulf Coast, where the land meets the water at prominent landmarks like McDowell Point and Live Oak Point. The interior landscape is defined by an extensive network of ranching infrastructure, evidenced by numerous named water-pumping stations such as Buzzard Windmill, Tomas Windmill, and Venada Windmill. These features indicate the essential nature of groundwater management in a region where coastal brackishness meets inland agricultural needs.

Water bodies like Burgentine Creek and Tomas Pond drain toward the bay, while the presence of The Sand Mounds and Dagger Point along the shoreline suggests a dynamic coastal environment. Transportation through this open country relies on rural routes such as Blackjack Rd and F-M 2040, which link isolated homesteads and grazing lands to the larger regional network. The concentration of windmill sites like Sierritos Windmill and Marano Windmill underscores the specialized land use typical of the Aransas County coastal prairie.
