How to Use This Whaleyville, Maryland Map

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

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 Whaleyville, Maryland

Whaleyville is a locality in Worcester County, Maryland, United States. It is a small community with a population of 192. The population density is 73.1 people per km². Whaleyville is located at 38.3870°N, 75.2975°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 21872.

Whaleyville emerges from the flat, industrious landscape of the Eastern Shore where the Whaleyville Branch carves a quiet path through the dark, loamy soil. It lies 7.9 miles west of Ocean Pines, MD (from Ocean Pines, MD: bearing 271°T), and is situated 6.9 miles northwest of Berlin. The air here carries a persistent dampness, a reminder that the expansive, shifting tides of the Assawoman Bay are only eight miles away. To the west, the subtle rise of Pine Ridge breaks the horizon, a modest elevation that anchors the eye against the vast, open sky. Within the local borders, Whaleyville Park offers a rare patch of managed green, a stillness that contrasts with the rhythmic, seasonal cycles of the surrounding fields. Beyond the immediate woodlots, the dense growth of the Wicomico State Forest looms in the distance, while the proximity of Steves Island serves as a quiet sentinel to the maritime influence that defines the wider region.

Agriculture remains the pulse of Whaleyville, where the labor of the harvest has long dictated the slow, deliberate turn of the seasons. The history of the place is etched into the aging wooden structures and the straight, purposeful lines of the roads that cut through the countryside, reflecting a heritage built on the patience of the plow. While the proximity to the coast suggests a life governed by water, the daily character of Whaleyville is firmly rooted in the terrestrial, defined by the steady work of those who cultivate the land and the quiet resilience of a life lived away from the tourist paths. Even the light at dusk feels distinct here, catching the moisture in the air to cast a pale, silver glow over the fields, lending a momentary, ethereal grace to an otherwise pragmatic existence.

About This Whaleyville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Whaleyville, Maryland. Coordinates: 38.387037, -75.297538. 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 Whaleyville includes the ZIP code (21872), telephone area code (410, 443), county seat of Worcester County (Snow Hill), and school district assignment (Worcester 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.
