Flood shoal morphology. Mattituck Creek takes a sharp turn to the northeast just
beyond the landward end of the east jetty. A major portion of the flood shoal is located
on the north bank, directly behind this turn. Shoaling also occurs on the south bank and
at the inlet mouth, along the west jetty (Figures 3-15 to 3-17).
