Explore Bokeelia, Florida, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Bokeelia, Florida. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Florida or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Bokeelia.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Bokeelia emerges from the flat, salt-scrubbed horizon as an island sanctuary defined by the relentless pulse of the Gulf of Mexico. It lies 14.7 miles south-southeast of Rotonda, FL (from Rotonda, FL: bearing 147°T), and is situated 7.8 miles west-southwest of Burnt Store Marina. This landscape sits atop the ancient, slight rise of Howard Mound, where the earth gives way to the tangled, salt-tolerant roots of mangroves that hold the shoreline against the tides. Within the protected boundaries of the Pine Island Sound Aquatic Preserve, the air retains a heavy, subtropical moisture that turns the evening light into a bruised, golden haze. Bokeelia Island acts as a solitary sentinel, its low-lying terrain shaped by the slow, humid breath of the sea and the persistent, quiet growth of palmetto scrub.
Bokeelia preserves a legacy built upon the fertile, marl-heavy soil that once supported a thriving agricultural industry, leaving behind an economy that still favors the patient harvest of the water over the frenetic pace of the mainland. While Gator Slough flows five miles to the east and the still waters of Cypress Lake lie six miles beyond that, the local rhythm remains tethered to the docks and the seasonal migration of those seeking refuge from the northern cold. The history of the region lingers in the quietude of its maritime outposts, where the industry of fishing boats and the slow drift of coastal life define the character of the inhabitants. Here, the passage of time is measured not by the clock, but by the shifting currents of the sound and the humid, electric storms that frequently mark the sky.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
