How to Use This Noank, Connecticut Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Noank, Connecticut. 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 Connecticut 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 Noank.

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 Noank, Connecticut

Noank is a locality in New London County, Connecticut, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,654. The population density is 418.8 people per km². Noank is located at 41.3375°N, 71.9976°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 6355.

Noank occupies a jagged finger of land that juts into the salt-stung air, defined by the tidal pulse of the coast and the uneven granite bones of the earth. It lies 6.0 miles east-southeast of New London, CT (from New London, CT: bearing 109°T), and is situated 9.1 miles west-southwest of Westerly. The landscape rises toward the modest summit of Pine Hill, while the freshwater currents of Fishtown Brook meander through the quiet brush to eventually meet the brine. Residents find respite in the green openness of Spicer Park, a space that offers a brief pause in the dense arrangement of weathered homes, while the low-lying shape of Sixpenny Island remains a constant, dark silhouette against the shifting light of West Harbor.

Economic life in Noank has long been tethered to the salt and the tide, echoing a history of maritime labor that once filled the air with the scent of pine pitch and drying nets. Where the shadows of colonial saltbox architecture stretch across narrow lanes, the legacy of wooden shipbuilding remains a quiet ghost in the local character. Beyond the immediate shore, the land retreats toward the dark, recessed silence of Dark Hollow, and those seeking the deep quiet of the interior must travel far to reach the distant canopy of Nehantic State Forest or the winding path of the Narragansett Trail. Though the modern pace is measured and deliberate, the evening light still turns the water into hammered silver, reminding any observer that Noank exists as a precarious, beautiful edge between the rugged soil and the infinite, rising tide.

About This Noank Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Noank, Connecticut. Coordinates: 41.337502, -71.997557. 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 Noank includes the ZIP code (6355), telephone area code (203, 475, 860, 959), county seat of New London County (New London), and school district assignment (Groton 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.
