About this map

Seal Island National Wildlife Refuge occupies a remote position in the Atlantic Ocean off the Maine coast, centered on the singular landmass of Seal Island. This survey reveals a landscape defined by treacherous maritime hazards and specialized coastal nomenclature. The island is flanked by distinctive geological features such as Western Head and Shag Roost, while the surrounding waters are punctuated by dangerous submerged features like Three Fathom Ledge, Roaring Bull Ledge, and Western Ear Ledge. The presence of labels such as Squeaker Guzzle and Western Bight reflects the unique coastal vernacular used by local mariners and wildlife observers in this isolated marine environment. As a protected refuge, the island serves as a critical sanctuary, with its shoreline and surrounding ledges meticulously documented to aid navigation in the often-foggy reaches of the Maine archipelago.
