2018 Map of Pahokee

About this map

Lake Okeechobee defines the western horizon of this quadrangle, where the massive freshwater body meets the fertile muck lands of the Everglades. The city of Pahokee occupies the shoreline, anchored by a grid of streets that transition into the vast agricultural tracts characteristic of this region. The landscape is heavily managed by a network of drainage infrastructure, including the Rim Canal Rd and the Okeechobee Waterway, which were essential for transforming the wetlands into productive soil. Notable landforms within the lake and its marshes include Kreamer Island, Torry Island, and Pelican Island. The map also reveals smaller clusters of development such as Fremd Village and Cardwell, alongside the Palm Beach County Glades Airport. For those following the perimeter of the lake, the Florida National Scenic Trail winds along the levee, providing a continuous path through this unique environment.
