How to Use This Sicily Island, Louisiana Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Sicily Island, Louisiana. 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 Louisiana 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 Sicily Island.

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.

Sicily Island holds a landscape defined by the persistent, winding presence of Bayou Falcon, which carves its path through the earth with a quiet, deliberate force. It lies 53.2 miles south-southeast of Monroe, LA (from Monroe, LA: bearing 149°T), and is situated 16.1 miles north-northwest of Ferriday. The terrain here rises in unexpected relief against the flat horizons of the surrounding delta, where the soil holds the deep, heavy color of iron and damp wood. To the west, the elevated ridges of the Sicily Island Hills Wildlife Management Area provide a dense, tangled canopy that catches the low-angled sun, casting long, bruised shadows across the forest floor. In the humid stillness of late afternoon, the air feels thick and weighted with the scent of pine needles and turned earth, a sensory reminder that the land is far removed from the brine of the distant coast, anchored firmly in the inland heat.

History in Sicily Island is measured not in decades, but in the slow, rhythmic cycles of the harvest that have long sustained the local economy. Beyond the immediate reach of the bayou, the land opens into expansive fields that have supported farming families for generations, their lives governed by the subtle shifts in the regional temperature and the reliable fertility of the basin. While the nearby basin of Hog Glade and the expansive waters of Turkey Creek Lake offer quiet refuge for those who seek the solitude of the woods, the inhabitants remain tethered to the industrious reality of their surroundings. Even as the modern world encroaches, the pace of life in Sicily Island retains a deliberate, steady quality, grounded by the enduring presence of the hills and the constant, slow-moving narrative of the inland plains.

About This Sicily Island Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sicily Island, Louisiana. Coordinates: 31.846551, -91.656235. 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 Sicily Island includes the ZIP code (71368), telephone area code (318), county seat of Catahoula Parish, and school district assignment (Catahoula Parish 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.
