San Juan Island and its southwestern coastline are documented here during a period of modern preservation and rural residential development. The landscape is defined by the significant presence of the San Juan Island National Historical Park on the southeastern shore near South Beach and the protected habitats of the San Juan Islands National Wildlife Refuge. The island's maritime character is prominent, with the Salish Sea and the Strait of Juan de Fuca meeting at the international boundary between the Usa and Canada. Inland, the San Juan Valley provides a pastoral contrast to the rocky points and numerous coves, such as Kanaka Bay and Eagle Cove. Small-scale aviation infrastructure is represented by Burden Field (Rabbit Run) Airport, while names like Old Town Lagoon hint at the island's earlier settlement history.
