About this map

The Straits of Mackinac anchor this coastal landscape, where the iconic Mackinac Bridge serves as the vital artery connecting the Upper and Lower Peninsulas. This maritime hub is defined by its transit history, with numerous ferry lines including the Arnold Transit Company, Shepler's Mackinac Island Ferry, and the Star Line Mackinac Island Ferry operating out of Saint Ignace. On the northern shore, the Father Marquette National Memorial and the Saint Ignace Cemetery provide deep historical roots for the community.

Across the water to the south, Mackinaw City is marked by the Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse and a developed waterfront featuring the Mackinaw City Municipal Marina and Sheplers Dock. The map also captures the eastern edge of Mackinac Island, showing the Mackinac Island Airport and the manicured landscapes of the Jewel Golf Course-Woods Nine. From the Moran Bay Seaplane Base to the Thunder Falls Water Park, the region’s evolution from a strategic passage to a premier recreation destination is clearly visible.
