Explore Dunstan, Maine, 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 Dunstan, 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 Dunstan.
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.

Dunstan emerges from the flat, salt-brined lowlands where the persistent rhythm of the tides shapes the very edges of the earth. It lies 5.4 miles north-northeast of Saco, ME (from Saco, ME: bearing 30°T), and is situated 9.2 miles southwest of Portland.
Phillips Brook carves a dark, slender artery through the terrain, its waters moving with a quiet gravity toward the vast, gray reach of the Atlantic Ocean. To the west, the subtle rise of Beech Ridge breaks the horizon, a muted silhouette against the pale Maine sky, while the expanse of the Scarborough Marsh Wildlife Management Area offers a sanctuary of swaying grasses and tidal mudflats. The air here holds the sharp, metallic tang of the sea, cooling the brow of the land as one wanders toward the nearby solitude of Cascade Brook. In the quiet hours of late afternoon, the light turns a bruised, silvery violet, catching the salt-crusted reeds and lending a fleeting, ethereal weight to the flat expanse of the coast.
Dunstan carries the quiet endurance of a settlement forged by the necessity of the soil and the proximity of the water. Long before the modern sprawl, the land was a place of passage, its economy tethered to the harvest of the marsh and the shifting currents that pull toward Plummer Island. Today, the pace of life maintains a steady, deliberate pulse, far removed from the clamor of larger hubs, yet defined by the same rugged independence that characterizes the region. While the distant thrum of Saccarappa Falls remains only a memory in the ears of the locals, the identity of Dunstan is anchored in the daily navigation of seasonal change, where the frost-hardened ground and the persistent, damp fog dictate the rhythm of the work day. It is a place that demands a certain patience, rewarding those who observe the subtle transformations of the marshland with a profound, unadorned clarity.

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.
