2024 Map of Seldovia B-2 SW

About this map

Nuka Island dominates this maritime landscape along the southern coast of the Kenai Peninsula, where the complex shoreline of Nuka Passage meets the open Gulf of Alaska. The island’s interior is defined by steep relief and conservation boundaries, split between the Kenai Fjords National Park and the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge. Numerous inlets and landforms provide navigational reference points for this uninhabited reach, from the sheltered waters of Mikes Bay and Westdahl Cove to the southern extremity at Nuka Point. Smaller landmasses like Berger Island and hazards such as Pinnacle Rock and Nuka Rock underscore the isolation of this wilderness area. The map illustrates a strictly natural topography where preservation is the primary human footprint, recorded by the U.S. Geological Survey and the Bureau of Land Management.
