How to Use This Quantico, Maryland Map

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

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 Quantico, Maryland

Quantico is a locality in Wicomico County, Maryland, United States. It is a small community with a population of 148. The population density is 27.1 people per km². Quantico is located at 38.3800°N, 75.7550°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 21856.

Quantico defines itself by the slow, deliberate movement of Quantico Creek as it carves a path through the flat, heavy soil of the interior landscape. It lies 7.8 miles west of Salisbury, MD (from Salisbury, MD: bearing 277°T), and is situated 7.5 miles west-northwest of Fruitland. The surrounding terrain is characterized by a level, agrarian consistency, where the horizon remains broad and unbroken by any sharp elevation. Dense stands of timber define the perimeter of the Chesapeake Forest Lands, which provide a quiet, protected buffer just a mile from the center of Quantico. The light here in the late afternoon often takes on a pale, buttery quality, illuminating the fine dust that rises from the unpaved edges of roads and settling deep into the creases of the fallow fields.

Deep colonial roots dictate the layout of the streets, reflecting a time when the land was organized around the necessity of moving goods from the interior toward the markets of the Chesapeake region. The local economy persists in a quiet dialogue with the land, grounded in long-standing agricultural traditions that have survived the industrial shifts of the last century. While the modern world maintains a presence through the steady pulse of transit, the character of the place remains fixed in its rural heritage, far removed from the bustle of the coast. Life in Quantico moves with the predictability of the seasons, echoing a history where the rhythm of the harvest and the maintenance of the homestead provided the primary measure of time.

About This Quantico Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Quantico, Maryland. Coordinates: 38.379983, -75.755014. 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 Quantico includes the ZIP code (21856), telephone area code (410, 443), county seat of Wicomico County (Salisbury), and school district assignment (Wicomico 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.
