How to Use This Lummi Island, Washington Map

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

About Lummi Island, Washington

Lummi Island is a locality in Whatcom County, Washington, United States. It is a small community with a population of 870. The population density is 55.0 people per km². Lummi Island is located at 48.7246°N, 122.6863°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 98262.

Lummi Island rises from the cold, deep currents of Puget Sound as a rugged spine of evergreen forest and weathered stone. It lies 9.3 miles west-southwest of Bellingham, WA (from Bellingham, WA: bearing 255°T), and is situated 9.5 miles south-southwest of Ferndale. Salt spray clings to the cedar boughs along the shoreline, and the air holds a permanent, damp chill that softens the sharp edges of the tide-washed rocks. Far to the east, the silhouette of the Cascade Range looms against the sky, a distant, jagged reminder of the continental divide. Inland, the terrain holds its secrets in the quiet shadows of dense thickets, while the nearby Lummi Flats provide a low, marshy counterpoint to the island’s steep, forested slopes. The light here at dusk does not fade so much as it pulls inward, turning the water into a sheet of hammered lead while the gulls retreat to the jagged cliffs.

Lummi Island exists within the protected boundaries of the San Juan Islands National Monument, a designation that preserves the wild integrity of its rocky perimeter. The local economy remains tethered to the sea, where generations have worked the waters, echoing the traditions found further inland near the Nooksack River. While the modern pace is measured by the rhythm of the ferry, the history of the place is defined by a deep, quiet autonomy that keeps the island isolated from the frantic expansion of the mainland. Travelers occasionally venture toward Hidden Falls or cast a line toward the cooler depths near Baker Reservoir, yet the islanders themselves prefer the stillness of the shoreline. Life here moves with the tide, indifferent to the noise of the outside world, anchored by a resilience that has outlasted many seasons of heavy rain and long, grey winters.
