How to Use This Tylerton, Maryland Map

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

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.

Tylerton occupies a fragile, low-lying expanse of Smith Island, where the land seems to dissolve into the water with every incoming tide. It lies 20.9 miles east-southeast of Saint Marys, MD (from Saint Marys, MD: bearing 117°T), and is situated 9.3 miles west of Crisfield. Tyler Creek snakes through the marshy perimeter, its brackish currents mirroring the expansive, pale sky that dominates this flat horizon. The air here holds a distinct salt-heavy weight, cooling the skin as evening light catches the surface of Great Pond, which remains perfectly still amidst the swaying grasses. Looking toward the mainland, the distant silhouette of Orchard Ridge provides the only break in an otherwise level landscape, standing as a quiet, earthen monitor over the watery reach of Horse Hammock Gut two miles away.

Tylerton carries the weathered resilience of a place defined by its precarious geography and the seasonal rhythms of the Chesapeake. Life for the residents of Tylerton centers on the harvest of the water, an economy that has shifted with the tides for generations, leaving the small harbor to serve as the functional heart of the local industry. The proximity to the Glenn Martin National Wildlife Refuge ensures that the surrounding marshes remain a sanctuary for migratory birds, their cries often punctuating the quietude of a workday. There is a singular, unvarnished grace to the way the houses sit upon the silt, anchored by a heritage of maritime labor that prefers the steady, salt-cured pace of the seasons over the frantic pulse of the world beyond the water.
