How to Use This St. Martinville, Louisiana Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for St. Martinville, 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 St. Martinville.

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.

St. Martinville emerges from the flat, fertile plains of the region, defined by the slow, deliberate movement of the Bayou Teche as it carves a path through the landscape. It lies 7.8 miles east of Broussard, LA (from Broussard, LA: bearing 101°T), and is situated 8.5 miles north of New Iberia. The surrounding countryside is a tapestry of productive farmland, where the air remains heavy and still under the weight of the afternoon sun. Vegetation thrives in this damp, inland environment, characterized by dense clusters of cypress and broad stretches of open fields. A quiet stillness defines the proximity to Unknown Park, which offers a sanctuary of local flora right at the doorstep of the streets. Those who travel seven miles to the north will discover the calm waters of Lake la Pointe, a feature that anchors the wider geography of the region.

St. Martinville holds a deep connection to the history of the Acadians who arrived here to establish a new life in the late eighteenth century. The local economy has long been tethered to the rhythmic cycles of the land, with sugarcane and rice serving as the primary drivers of regional industry. Processing these crops remains a vital labor, reflecting a resilience that has persisted through generations of agricultural change. The labor of the fields creates a distinct tempo for the day, where the work of the sun dictates the pace of commerce and life. Many families continue to maintain these traditions, ensuring that the connection between the soil and the economy remains unbroken.

St. Martinville projects a cultural character that is uniquely layered, blending traditions into a vernacular that is both distinct and enduring. The Evangeline Oak serves as a notable landmark, standing as a silent witness to the narratives and legends that have permeated the local consciousness for centuries. During the annual Pepper Festival, the streets fill with the sounds of zydeco and the scent of regional cuisine, bringing people together in a celebration of shared identity. The writer George Washington Cable drew inspiration from the environment here, capturing the singular spirit of the region in his literary works. Daily life moves with a measured gravity, defined by the persistence of language and the social bonds formed in the shade of the grand, moss-draped trees.
