Explore Kennebunkport, 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 Kennebunkport, 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 Kennebunkport.
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.

Kennebunkport defines itself through the steady, rhythmic movement of the Kennebunk River as it carves a path toward the Atlantic Ocean. It lies 9.1 miles south of Biddeford, ME (from Biddeford, ME: bearing 187°T), and is situated 9.8 miles south of Saco. The landscape here feels shaped by a damp, salt-heavy air that clings to the weathered shingles of older buildings and softens the sharp edges of the granite coastline. While the horizon remains flat and expansive, one might catch a distant glimpse of Merriland Ridge rising eight miles away, providing a subtle relief to the otherwise level terrain. Grist Mill Pond sits quietly within the local geography, offering a still, freshwater contrast to the restless tides nearby, while the protected acreage of Kct - preserves a quiet corner of the natural world for those who wander off the main roads.
European settlement in the region began as a maritime outpost, with early builders drawn to the deep, navigable access provided by the river for shipbuilding and trade. Kennebunkport transitioned from these industrious maritime origins into a seasonal destination, where the architecture reflects a layered history of seafaring wealth and later architectural revival. The town grew slowly, favoring the preservation of its clapboard facades and narrow lanes, which still retain the scent of pine and brine that has characterized the southern Maine coast for generations. This long-standing connection to the water remains the primary anchor of its identity, grounding the modern day in the traditions of the early colonial proprietors who first claimed the harbor.
Economic life in Kennebunkport leans heavily on the seasonal influx of visitors and the enduring vitality of small-scale maritime commerce. While no major universities or industrial centers occupy the immediate vicinity, the local infrastructure prioritizes the maintenance of its historic docks and the careful management of the river mouth to support the active fishing fleet. Small businesses and galleries form the core of the professional landscape, operating with a quiet efficiency that keeps the local economy moving through the lean winter months. The day-to-day operations of the harbor and the nearby infrastructure suggest a focus on sustainability and the preservation of space, ensuring that the working waterfront remains a functional, rather than purely aesthetic, component of the local experience.
Cultural life in Kennebunkport finds its expression in the annual festivals that celebrate the turn of the seasons and the close-knit nature of the residency. The town does not host major professional sports franchises, instead favoring a pace of life where the primary recreation involves walking the shoreline or observing the changing light over the Atlantic Ocean. Bumpkin Island sits as a solitary feature offshore, visible from the mainland and often serving as a navigational landmark for those familiar with the coastal waters. The Bush family, particularly the late President George H.W. Bush, maintained a well-known presence here at their summer estate, a connection that brought international attention to the quiet dignity of the coastline. Whether one is passing through the Kct - or simply watching the fog roll in from the sea, the culture here remains deeply tied to the tactile, unhurried reality of living beside the tide.

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.
