How to Use This Littlejohn Island, Maine Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Littlejohn Island, Maine. 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 Maine 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 Littlejohn 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.

Littlejohn Island emerges from the cold Atlantic waters as a rugged expanse of granite and spruce, where the tides dictate the pulse of the shoreline. It lies 8.8 miles northeast of Portland, ME (from Portland, ME: bearing 43°T), and is situated 9.5 miles northeast of South Portland. The landscape is defined by the serrated edges of the coast, where salt-crusted pines lean toward the sea, their needles darkening as the afternoon light wanes into a deep, bruised violet. A mile away, the stillness of Dead Mans Cove offers a quiet counterpoint to the restless surf that buffets the island’s rocky perimeter. Inland, the terrain is marked by moss-covered boulders and dense thickets, a stark contrast to the distant, jagged silhouette of Mitchell Ledge that anchors the horizon. Visitors often seek out the trails near the Littlejohn Island Preserve Parking, where the air holds the sharp, clean scent of brine and damp earth, inviting a slow pace that matches the heavy, rhythmic breathing of the ocean.

Economic life on Littlejohn Island has long been tethered to the sea, reflecting a history of maritime labor and the seasonal harvest of the waters that have sustained generations. While the nearby Royal River carries the freshwater runoff of the mainland toward the sea, the islanders remain focused on the currents, their daily routines punctuated by the maintenance of gear and the monitoring of the tides. The proximity to the Pumgustuck waterfall, a few miles inland, serves as a reminder of the varied topography that feeds the coastal ecosystem, flowing through the landscape long before reaching the salt. Farther toward the mainland, the Falmouth Town Forest provides a dense canopy of shade, yet the island itself remains exposed to the elements, a place where the history of the Wabanaki land is etched into the very stones beneath one’s feet. Life here moves with a deliberate gravity, shaped by the isolation of the island and the enduring, unyielding character of the Maine coast.
