How to Use This Piney Point, Maryland Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Piney 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 Piney 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.

About Piney Point, Maryland

Piney Point is a locality in Worcester County, Maryland, United States. It is a small community with a population of 980. The population density is 247.1 people per km².

Piney Point draws its character from the slow, deliberate movement of water through the low-lying marshes that define the local horizon. It lies 1.8 miles northwest of Ocean Pines, MD (from Ocean Pines, MD: bearing 308°T), and is situated 7.4 miles northwest of Ocean City. Perkins Creek carves a winding path through the landscape, acting as a quiet artery that feeds the surrounding wetlands before eventually yielding to the broader reach of Assawoman Bay, located just two miles to the east. Piney Island sits as a steadfast anchor at the center of this terrain, where the air is consistently heavy with the scent of brackish silt and damp earth. At twilight, the light here turns a bruised, metallic violet, catching the tall grasses of the Remainder Parcel in a way that makes the entire expanse feel as though it is waiting for the tide to dictate its next transformation.

Commerce in Piney Point has long been tethered to the rhythms of the water, favoring the patient harvest of the bay over the frantic pace of modern industry. The legacy of the Eastern Shore persists in the local habits of life, where the economy remains influenced by the shifting accessibility of the waterways and the necessity of managing the encroaching marsh. While the distant silhouette of Poke Hill marks the far edge of the region, the immediate world here is one of flat, saturated color and the persistent, rhythmic slap of water against wooden pilings. It is a place where history is measured not by monuments, but by the slow erosion of the banks and the constant, quiet maintenance of the channels that keep the local vessels moving between the creek and the open bay.

About This Piney Point Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Piney Point, Maryland. Coordinates: 38.147575, -76.522743. 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 Piney Point includes the ZIP code (21813, 20674), telephone area code (410, 443, 301, 240), county seat of Worcester County (Snow Hill), and school district assignment (St. Marys County Public Schools).

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.
