About this map

Whidbey Island's central landscape is defined here by the sheltered waters of Penn Cove and the windswept bluffs of the Ebeys Landing Natl Hist Res. The historic town of Coupeville serves as the focal point for the region's early maritime and agricultural development, flanked by fertile areas like Ebeys Prairie and Smith Prairie. The spatial arrangement of small settlements such as San de Fuca, Coveland, and Monroe Landing illustrates the area's dependence on the cove for transport and trade during its formative years.

Military and navigational history converge at Admiralty Head, where Fort Casey stands guard over the entrance to the Puget Sound. The connection to the mainland and other islands is maintained at the Keystone Ferry Landing, situated near the narrow Keystone Spit and Crockett Lake. Local burial history can be traced to the Sunnyside Cemetery, while industrial activity is noted at the Libbey Quarry and Coupeville Quarry Number 2.
