2018 Map of Withlacoochee Bay OE S

About this map

The coastal waters and intricate marshlands of the Gulf of Mexico dominate this 2018 survey, where the terrestrial landscape of Levy and Citrus counties dissolves into a network of keys and passes. The settlements of Yankeetown and Port Inglis occupy the high ground near the mouth of the bay, serving as gateways to the Gulf. Navigational landmarks such as Bungalow Pass and East Pass chart the narrow waterways between Chambers Island and the mainland. Further out, the landscape transitions into open water, broken only by isolated features like Deadman Key and the underwater passage at Doghead Gap. This record illustrates the delicate boundary between Florida's west coast wetlands and the sea, showing the modern arrangement of these historic coastal outposts.
