How to Use This Punta Rassa, Florida Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Punta Rassa, 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 Punta Rassa.

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.

About Punta Rassa, Florida

Punta Rassa is a locality in Lee County, Florida, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,620. The population density is 261.9 people per km². Punta Rassa is located at 26.4998°N, 82.0021°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 33908.

Punta Rassa occupies a low-slung, salt-scrubbed peninsula where the subtropical humidity clings to the skin like a heavy, humid veil. It lies 3.7 miles southwest of Iona, FL (from Iona, FL: bearing 233°T), and is situated 6.5 miles southwest of Cape Coral. The landscape is defined by the meeting of terrestrial palmetto scrub and the encroaching tide, a place where the edges of the earth seem to fray into the Gulf of Mexico. Across the water, the silhouette of Fisherman Key rises from the shallows, a solitary sentinel amidst the shifting currents. The air here carries the sharp, iodine scent of the sea, and when the sun begins its descent, the light takes on a bruised, violet quality that turns the surface of the water into hammered pewter.

Punta Rassa serves as a quiet witness to a century of maritime labor, having once functioned as a vital port for the cattle trade that fueled the early regional economy. Today, the pulse of the locality is dictated by the rhythms of the water, with the Punta Rassa Boat Ramp acting as the primary artery for those seeking passage toward the open horizon. To the north, the Caloosahatchee River exerts its influence, pushing a steady, brackish flow toward the sea that shapes the local ecology and sustains the mangroves. Life in Punta Rassa remains tethered to these natural cycles, far removed from the clamor of inland development, existing instead in the quiet, persistent tension between the firm ground and the vast, encroaching blue of the Gulf of Mexico.

About This Punta Rassa Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Punta Rassa, Florida. Coordinates: 26.499755, -82.002107. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Punta Rassa includes the ZIP code (33908), telephone area code (561), county seat of Lee County (Fort Myers), and school district assignment (Lee County School District).

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.
