According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of {{convert|1.4|sqmi|km2}}, of which {{convert|1.4|sqmi|km2}} is land and {{convert|0.04|sqmi|km2}} (2.84%) is water.

History

The modern history of what became known as the city of Atlantis originates in a ranch called Mulberry Farms, owned by Philip D. Lewis, a former Florida state senator.[7][8] Lewis's Mission Company raised Brahman cattle on the land. In 1958, real estate developers Nathan Hunt and Paul Kintz purchased the land, and began the construction of what became a gated golf and country club community. The residential development, combined with a small amount of adjacent land for commercial use, was incorporated on June 19, 1959.[7][8] Its first council was appointed, consisting of James Kintz as mayor, Nathan Hunt as vice mayor, and councilmen Paul Kintz, Marjorie Hunt and William Blakeslee.[7]
