The management area extends from State Road 76 in southwest Martin County to approximately six miles into northwest Palm Beach County, between Beeline Highway (SR 710) and US 441. It is located approximately two miles east of Port Mayaca and Lake Okeechobee, and 40 miles northwest of West Palm Beach.
