2015 Map of Tuckernuck Island

USGS Topo · Published 2015

About this map

Tuckernuck Island sits at the eastern edge of this coastal survey, where the shifting sands and shoals of the Atlantic Ocean define the maritime landscape. This 2015 study captures the low-lying geography of the region, including the isolated Muskeget Island Airport and the protected waters of North Pond. The map reveals the intricate bathymetry and geological features that surround the island, such as Tuckernuck Bank and Bass Ledge. The boundary lines between Dukes County and Nantucket County pass through these waters, illustrating the jurisdictional divide in this thin strip of Massachusetts coastline. Geologists and local historians can use this data to observe coastal morphology and the placement of remote navigation points like Muskeget Rock.
