2015 Map of Dog Island

About this map

Dog Island sits as a narrow barrier between the Saint George Sound and the open Gulf of Mexico, defining the coastal geography of Franklin County. This remote island is characterized by its limited access, primarily served by the Dog Island Fry, and its small local road network including Gulf Shore Dr and Valley Shore Dr. The landscape is dominated by aviation and maritime elements, featuring both a Regional Airport and the Dog Island Airport situated at the island's center. To the northeast, the submerged hazards of Dog Island Reef extend into the sound. On the mainland portion at the top left, Lake Morality Rd and Louisiana Ave mark the edge of the coastal development. The map reveals a place where transportation is dictated by the water, focusing on small-scale island infrastructure and the natural boundary of the Florida coast.
