2017 Map of Saint Martin Island

About this map

Saint Martin Island and its smaller neighbor, Big Saint Martin Island, anchor this nautical survey of the northern waters of Lake Huron. The islands are part of a secluded archipelago within the Hiawatha National Forest, where the landscape is defined by dense woodland and low-lying coastal wetlands. On the larger island, the terrain rises slightly toward the center, surrounded by a complex shoreline of small coves and points. To the north, Search Bay carves into the mainland, protected by the prominent reach of Saint Martin Point. The map also captures the very northern tip of Mackinac Island at the bottom edge, providing a clear view of the navigational relationship between these landmasses. This 2017 edition details the uninhabited character of Little Saint Martin Island and the surrounding shoals, reflecting a region dedicated to conservation and natural preservation.
