Explore Perry Point, Maryland, 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 Perry Point, Maryland. 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 Maryland 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 Perry Point.
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.

Perry Point asserts its presence where the land yields to the tidal pull of the Chesapeake, defined by the persistent, winding course of Mill Creek as it carves through the local terrain. It lies 1.1 miles east-northeast of Havre de Grace, MD (from Havre de Grace, MD: bearing 72°T), and is situated 6.8 miles west-southwest of Cecil. This landscape is shaped by a coastal character that carries the scent of salt and damp earth, where the low-lying fields reach toward the water with a quiet, persistent gravity. From the vantage of Trego Field, one observes the interplay of light on the water, while the silhouette of Garrett Island interrupts the horizon of the nearby Furnace Bay. The air here remains heavy with the moisture of the Eastern Shore, and on clear days, the distant, hazy shadow of Rock Ridge provides a stark contrast to the flat, expansive marshlands that characterize the immediate vicinity.
Perry Point carries the weight of a long institutional history, having served as a pivot for naval and medical service throughout the past century. The economy has been anchored by these federal facilities, which have quietly dictated the rhythm of daily life and the maintenance of the grounds. While the bustle of larger industrial centers remains distant, the local character is defined by the steady, unadorned work of those who manage the infrastructure and the surrounding acreage. Beyond the immediate campus, the proximity of Elk Neck State Forest offers a dense, wooded respite, while the occasional traveler might seek the quiet flow of Amos Falls or the stillness of the Stancill Incorporated Reservoir. Life in Perry Point moves with the slow, deliberate pace of the tides, reflecting a deep-seated resilience in a place where the history of the land is measured by the changing seasons and the constant flow of the surrounding waters.

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.
