2024 Map of Machias Seal Island
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
Machias Seal Island sits as a solitary outpost in the southern reaches of this Washington County maritime survey. Surrounded by the open waters of the Atlantic, the island is accompanied only by a few nearby hazards and landforms, including the small outcrop of Gull Rock to the north and the treacherous North Shoal. This modern study by the U.S. Geological Survey details the precise coastline and bathymetric surroundings of this isolated location. Further north, the lone peak of North Rock rises from the sea, marking a critical point for navigation in these remote coastal waters. The map is primarily an aquatic study, illustrating the isolation of these rocky features from the Maine mainland.
