2021 Map of Wulfert

About this map

Sanibel Island and the coastal hamlet of Wulfert define this barrier island landscape, where the Gulf of Mexico meets the complex estuarine waters of Pine Island Sound. The map documents a fragile geography of keys and bayous, including Buck Key, Runyan Key, and Silver Key, linked by the winding Roosevelt Channel and Wulfert Channel. This 2021 survey shows the established infrastructure of the northern island, from the primary thoroughfare of Sanibel Captiva Rd to the recreational Florida Circumnavigational Paddling Trl and Indigo Trl. The intricate shoreline detail captures several inlets such as Kesson Bayou and Coral Creek Inlet, providing an essential reference for understanding the modern hydrological and residential layout of Sanibel near Long Point and Sanibel Rocks.
