About this map

Marrowstone Island and Indian Island dominate this coastal landscape, separated from the mainland by the Portage Canal. The small community of Nordland sits along the shores of Mystery Bay, while the northern end of the island chain includes the Marrowstone Wildlife Management Area and Marrowstone Point. On Indian Island, the presence of CNI NAVMAG Indian Island reflects the long-standing military strategic importance of these landmasses overlooking Admiralty Inlet and Puget Sound.

Evidence of local heritage is found at View Cem near the eastern shore, while the western side shows the edge of Port Hadlock-Irondale. The geography is defined by a series of prominent coastal features, from Nodule Point and Liplip Point in the south to Point Hudson near Port Townsend in the northwest. Local roads like Flagler Rd and E Marrowstone Rd provide the primary connection through the rural island landscape.
