About this map

Pineland and Bokeelia anchor the northern reaches of Pine Island, showcasing a landscape defined by the intricate waterways of Pine Island Sound and Charlotte Harbor. The settlement patterns here follow a dense network of residential streets such as Stringfellow Rd and Barrancas Ave, while the surrounding waters are dotted with numerous small keys and islands. Notable archaeological and historical sites are evident in the presence of Howard Mound and Faulkner Mound, suggesting a deep human history tied to these coastal estuaries.

Waterborne transit remains central to the area's geography, with the Intracoastal Waterway cutting through the sound and Shell Pass providing access toward Boca Grande. To the east, the Pine Island Airport serves the local community, while more remote features like Cabbage Key and Useppa Island sit separated by the tidal flats of the Useppa Oyster Bar. The map also details many smaller named features such as Whoopee Island, Mondongo Island, and Josslyn Island, which help define the complex shoreline of this Florida gulf coast region.
