How to Use This Perdido, Alabama Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Perdido, Alabama. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Alabama or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Perdido.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Perdido, Alabama

Perdido emerges from the dense, humid warmth of the Alabama timberlands where the persistent current of Thompson Branch cuts a narrow, shadowed path through the loam. It lies 28.6 miles northeast of Spanish Fort, AL (from Spanish Fort, AL: bearing 37°T), and is situated 8.0 miles west of Atmore. The landscape surrounding Perdido is defined by a heavy, verdant stillness, where the canopy of longleaf pine and bottomland hardwood traps the afternoon sun, casting long, bruised-purple shadows across the red-clay tracks that spiderweb through the brush. Only two miles to the west, the rare, carnivorous flora of the Splinter Hill Bog Complex thrive in the damp, acidic soil, a quiet testament to the peculiar and ancient biology that persists in these low-lying reaches. When the light dips low toward the horizon, the air thickens with the scent of damp earth and pine resin, muffling the distant, rhythmic hum of the wind through the needles.

Generations of families have organized their lives around the harvest of these woods and the patient cultivation of the surrounding soil, maintaining a quiet existence far from the frantic pace of the modern world. Long Hollow provides a subtle depression in the geography that has historically funneled the flow of local trade and movement, keeping the rhythm of Perdido tethered to the slow, seasonal turn of the pecan groves and the regional timber economy. Life here is measured by the steady maintenance of homesteads and the resilience of the local soil, which demands a certain grounded temperament from those who remain. While the world beyond shifts and accelerates, the people of Perdido find a stark, unadorned beauty in the endurance of their quiet crossroads, where the legacy of the land remains as visible as the deep, iron-rich dust on the threshold of every doorway.

About This Perdido Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Perdido, Alabama. Coordinates: 31.007682, -87.627209. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Perdido includes the ZIP code (36562), telephone area code (251), county seat of Baldwin County (Bay Minette), and school district assignment (Baldwin County School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
