Explore Clewiston, 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 Clewiston, 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 Clewiston.
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.

Clewiston occupies a vast, level expanse of land that stretches toward the horizon, defined by the humid, subtropical air that clings to the earth like a soft blanket. It lies 17.1 miles west-northwest of Belle Glade, FL (from Belle Glade, FL: bearing 286°T), and is situated 1.6 miles northeast of Harlem. The landscape remains dominated by sweeping plains and fertile soil that seems to hold the very warmth of the sun long after the day has faded. Only one mile away, the expansive waters of Lake Okeechobee mirror the changing colors of the sky, providing a quiet, rhythmic presence to the surrounding flatlands. To the north, the Okeechobee Waterway cuts a steady path through the terrain, while the subtle rise of Maple Mound stands seven miles distant as a landmark against the otherwise uniform horizon. Even the light here possesses a unique quality, casting long, amber shadows across the fields during the slow, lingering transition into dusk.
Clewiston grew from the ambition of those who recognized the potential of the rich, dark earth, ultimately transforming the region into a center for large-scale agricultural production. The local economy remains deeply rooted in the cultivation of sugar cane, a labor that dictates the seasonal pulse of the neighborhood and sustains the livelihoods of many families. Massive processing facilities stand as monuments to this industry, their silhouettes punctuating the skyline as they hum with the continuous activity of the harvest. Historically, the development of the area mirrored the expansion of inland infrastructure, drawing workers who sought to build a future amidst the dense palmetto scrub and cypress thickets. This economic identity has fostered a resilient, hardworking character, where the progress of the seasons is measured by the growth of the crops and the steady operation of the mills.
Cultural life in Clewiston finds its expression in the communal gatherings held at Bicentennial Park And C S Mott Pool, where the local pace slows to accommodate the needs of neighbors and families. The spirit of the people is reflected in the various festivals that celebrate the harvest, bringing a sense of unity to the wide, open streets. While the area maintains a modest profile, it has occasionally served as a backdrop for the lives of notable figures, such as the influential politician Spessard Holland, who once walked these grounds. Landmarks here are defined more by their functional purpose than by ornate architecture, favoring the practical beauty of well-maintained public spaces and historic administrative buildings. The daily rhythm is marked by the distant sounds of machinery and the frequent, bright flashes of lightning that sweep across the plains, serving as a reminder of the raw, untamed power of the climate.

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.
