Explore Riceboro, Georgia, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Riceboro, Georgia. 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 Georgia 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 Riceboro.
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.

Riceboro occupies a low, verdant expanse of the coastal plain where the humidity clings to the skin like a warm, damp silk. It lies 12.3 miles southeast of Hinesville, GA (from Hinesville, GA: bearing 129°T), and is situated 4.9 miles south of Midway. The landscape is defined by the slow, deliberate movement of Riceboro Creek, which winds through the dense thickets of longleaf pine and scrub oak that frame the horizon. Beyond the immediate canopy, the terrain flattens into the wide, quiet expanse of Olmstead Pasture, a place where the light at dusk turns the tall grasses into a pale, flickering gold. Though the open coastline remains seventeen miles distant, the air here carries the faint, salt-tinged memory of the tides, and the distant silhouette of Black Island serves as a reminder of the shifting boundary between the solid earth and the encroaching sea.
Riceboro holds a deep, quiet history tethered to the rhythm of the soil and the labor of those who settled this damp, fertile ground long before the arrival of modern industry. The local economy persists in a measured cadence, moving between the quiet industry of the land and the modest leisure found at the Riceboro Fishing Pier, where the water reflects the gray, overcast sky with mirror-like clarity. Life here is influenced by the proximity of Carrs Neck Creek and the seclusion of Trophy Lake, far removed from the frantic pace of the northern metropolises. While the distant Board Pile Ridges remain visible only as a faint, jagged smudge against the far edge of the sky, the true character of Riceboro is found in the stillness of its backroads and the endurance of a culture that values the slow, steady pulse of a life lived in harmony with the coastal plain.

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.
