Sarichef Island serves as the focal point for this coastal survey, home to the Inupiat village of Shishmaref. Located along the Chukchi Sea, the settlement is concentrated on the southern end of the island, where Main Street runs through the community near the Shishmaref Airport. The map highlights the narrow geographical position of the village, perched between the open Chukchi Sea to the north and the expansive Shishmaref Inlet to the south.
