Explore Lely, 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 Lely, 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 Lely.
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.

Lely stretches across a flat, subtropical expanse where the heavy air holds the scent of damp sawgrass and the encroaching salt of the sea. It lies 5.0 miles southeast of Naples, FL (from Naples, FL: bearing 125°T), and is situated 6.4 miles south-southwest of Golden Gate. The landscape is defined by a low, deliberate horizon, where the elevation rises almost imperceptibly toward the modest height of Sand Hill, three miles distant. Beyond the manicured edges of Gulf Coast Community Park, the terrain yields to tangled mangrove thickets and patches of palmetto scrub that shiver under the weight of sudden, electric afternoon storms. To the west, the dark, slow-moving currents of Haldeman Creek trace a path through the humid brush, drawing the eye toward the distant, shimmering expanse of Sand Hill Bay. The light here at dusk is thick and golden, turning the gray-green foliage into silhouettes that seem to hold their breath against the coming night.
Lely carries the quiet weight of a region reclaimed from the swamp, its history etched into the drainage canals and the wide, sun-bleached roads that cut through former agricultural tracts. The local economy, once tethered to the slow cycles of soil and season, has shifted into the measured rhythm of a destination for those seeking the warmth of the southern sun. Life in Lely revolves around the seasonal arrival of visitors who find shelter near the dense, tangled shelter of Rattlesnake Hammock, keeping the commerce of the region in a state of perpetual, quiet flux. Even far from the deeper waters, the influence of the coast remains, felt in the sharp, briny quality of the wind that rolls in from the bay. It is a place of transition, where the wild, untamed character of the inland scrub meets the organized, deliberate expansion of a land constantly being measured and cleared.

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.
