Virtual Field Trip to the Florida Keys
Upper Keys: Location 4 - South Sound Creek, Key Largo
View looking east from outside the mouth of the creek, at point a on the
map. The view is taken from near the centre
of the navigation channel.
The elongate light-coloured area behind the buoy is a carbonate mud bank, here
submerged at high tide. In the background, dense mangrove swamps mark the broad
transition zone from lagoon to dry land.
