How to Use This Boothbay Harbor, Maine Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Boothbay Harbor, Maine. 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 Maine 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 Boothbay Harbor.

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 Boothbay Harbor, Maine

Boothbay Harbor is a locality in Lincoln County, Maine, United States. It is a small community with a population of 872. The population density is 397.0 people per km². Boothbay Harbor is located at 43.8523°N, 69.6281°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 04538.

Boothbay Harbor holds the salt-heavy air of the Atlantic in its deep, jagged inlets, where the tide pulls rhythmically against the granite edges of McFarland Island. It lies 32.5 miles south-southeast of Augusta, ME (from Augusta, ME: bearing 167°T), and is situated 17.3 miles east-southeast of Brunswick. Granite ledges break the surface of Mill Cove, and the dark, tangled growth of the Boothbay Harbor Wetlands filters the runoff before it meets the sea, creating a landscape defined by the interplay of spruce-fir forests and the relentless, cold pulse of the water. On clear days, the silhouette of The Reach rises distantly against the horizon, a firm reminder of the topography that anchors this sliver of the world. The light here is thin and sharp, catching the white spray of the waves and turning the harbor into a shifting mosaic of slate and indigo.

Maritime industry has defined the lifeblood of Boothbay Harbor for generations, its economy tied to the seasonal haul of lobster pots and the steady, quiet work of boat building that persists despite the changing tides of modernity. Beyond the docks, the terrain shifts toward the interior, where the waters of Meadow Brook wind through the woodland and the quiet, still surface of Appalachie Pond offers a respite from the coastal wind. Local character is forged in the persistence of those who navigate these waters, their lives adjusted to the long, gray winters and the brief, bright intensity of summer. The rhythm of daily existence remains tethered to the tide, a slow and deliberate pace that honors the practical, hard-won history of the Maine coast.

About This Boothbay Harbor Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Boothbay Harbor, Maine. Coordinates: 43.852305, -69.628101. 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 Boothbay Harbor includes the ZIP code (04538), telephone area code (207), county seat of Lincoln County (Wiscasset), and school district assignment (Boothbay-Boothbay Harbor Community 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.
