The Island Map

The LOST Island. It's big and mysterious. Having an interest in maps, this is a project I wanted to undertake in order to create a comprehensive and attractive map of all the major locations and landmarks on The Island. My tools to help me reach this goal will be maps from the show, fan consensus, the always-helpful LOSTpedia, and plain old logic in the face of any inconsistencies.

  • The appearance of a new map in this week’s episode makes it necessary for us to revisit an old question - one that has never been definitively answered: Where the hell is Hydra Island?
Anyone who has been following this project for a while knows that my location for Hydra Island is simply an educated guess. There just hasn’t been enough evidence to determine a conclusive location. This map clearly shows a portion of the east coast of The Island. It even contains a compass rose so that there can be no doubt as to what we’re looking at.
Based on the dialogue in this scene, we can conclude that the smaller island further to the east [under the thumb] must be Hydra Island. So we finally have some evidence to help us find its real location. That’s good, right? Sure it is, except for the fact that this map disagrees completely with my location for the Hydra.
But it’s OK. Seeing this map is causing me to reevaluate some of my arguments regarding the location of Hydra Island. So I’m gathering some more evidence now to present in a new post soon.
