Explore Loreauville, Louisiana, 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 Loreauville, Louisiana. 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 Louisiana 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 Loreauville.
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.

Loreauville anchors itself upon the low, fertile banks where the Bayou Teche curves with a deliberate, muscular grace through the humid Louisiana flatlands. It lies 6.1 miles northeast of New Iberia, LA (from New Iberia, LA: bearing 53°T), and is situated 7.5 miles southeast of St. Martinville. This landscape feels suspended in a perpetual state of damp anticipation, where the air hangs heavy with the scent of silt and the deep, verdant breath of cypress knees rising from the mud. At Loreauville Park, the horizon flattens into a vast, open expanse, interrupted only by the distant, shimmering promise of Sampsons Cove or the dark, still waters of Lake Fausse Pointe, which sit just a few miles beyond the peripheral canopy. When the light fails at dusk, the sky bruises into shades of violet and charcoal, casting a long, liquid reflection across the bayou that seems to pull the very spirit of the earth toward the sea.
Sugar cane stalks dominate the surrounding fields, their long, fibrous leaves rustling in a rhythmic, dry cadence that has defined the local economy since the earliest days of settlement. Loreauville grew from the persistence of those who worked the soil, creating a cultural layering of Cajun and Creole traditions that remain as quiet and resilient as the river itself. The pace of life here is measured by the slow, steady turn of the agricultural seasons and the occasional hum of machinery from the nearby mills, rather than the frantic pulse of the modern world. Even today, the identity of Loreauville remains tied to the water and the field, a place where the history of the land is written not in monuments, but in the way the sun warms the dark earth and the way the people carry the weight of their heritage with a casual, unforced dignity.

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.
