How to Use This Fauntleroy, Washington Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Fauntleroy, Washington. 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 Washington 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 Fauntleroy.

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 Fauntleroy, Washington

Fauntleroy is a locality in King County, Washington, United States. It has a population of approximately 4,500. The population density is 2200.0 people per km². Fauntleroy is located at 47.5232°N, 122.3929°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 98136.

Fauntleroy occupies a dramatic shelf of land where the earth yields abruptly to the rhythmic pulse of Fauntleroy Cove. It lies 1.8 miles west-northwest of White Center, WA (from White Center, WA: bearing 283°T), and is situated 6.4 miles south-southwest of Seattle. The salt-thickened air carries a perpetual, cool dampness that softens the silhouette of the distant Cascade Range, which haunts the eastern horizon like a jagged, spectral spine. Here, the shoreline is defined by a rugged transition of stone and timber, where the dark, evergreen canopy leans toward the tide, and the light at dusk turns the water into a sheet of hammered pewter, reflecting a quietude that persists despite the mechanical churn of the nearby Fauntleroy Ferry Terminal.

Fauntleroy has long functioned as a vital maritime threshold, its economic lifeblood tethered to the steady transit of vessels that bridge the gap between the mainland and the islands. While the bustling transit hub dominates the immediate waterfront, the character of the place remains defined by a patient, residential stillness that belies its history as a point of arrival and departure. Inland, the topography shifts toward the rugged terrain of Fairmount Gulch, and though the wilder reaches of Tiger Mountain State Forest lie miles away, the verdant, moss-laden density of the region’s timberland continues to press against the edges of the neighborhood. Life here moves in time with the tides and the scheduled mechanical heartbeat of the terminal, grounded in a geography that feels both permanent and fleeting under the expansive, slate-gray sky of the Pacific Northwest.
