How to Use This Mattapoisett Center, Massachusetts Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Mattapoisett Center, Massachusetts. 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 Massachusetts 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 Mattapoisett Center.

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.

Mattapoisett Center anchors a landscape defined by the persistent, saline breath of the Atlantic Ocean, which lies just one mile to the south. It lies 5.4 miles east of Acushnet, MA (from Acushnet, MA: bearing 100°T), and is situated 7.0 miles east-northeast of New Bedford. Fine, salt-crusted air drifts inland, cooling the humid afternoons and clinging to the clapboard siding of houses that have weathered generations of northeasters. To the north, the terrain transitions into dense, quiet woodlands, while closer to the immediate village, one finds the manicured stillness of Dunseith Gardens. The water table remains high, feeding the nearby Eel Pond and the winding, low-banked path of Pine Island Brook, both of which serve as quiet arteries for local wildlife. On the distant horizon, the silhouette of Beals Ledge offers a rugged contrast to the softer, marshy topography of the Bayside Meadows that delineate the transition toward the open coast.

Mattapoisett Center carries the weight of a maritime past, once serving as a significant hub for the whaling industry that shaped the economic character of the region. Where ships were once fitted for long, arduous voyages, the current pace is marked by a quieter commerce of local artisans and seasonal residents who appreciate the austere beauty of the shoreline. The historical integrity of the village remains visible in the architecture and the deliberate, slow-turning rhythm of the seasons, far removed from the frantic pace of larger urban centers. Even as the modern world encroaches, the presence of Barstow Rock serves as a steadfast marker of the coast, grounding the local identity in the tangible, unyielding geology of the Atlantic Ocean.

About This Mattapoisett Center Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Mattapoisett Center, Massachusetts. Coordinates: 41.6666, -70.8056. 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 Mattapoisett Center includes the ZIP code (02739), telephone area code (339, 351, 413, 508, 617, 774, 781, 857, 978), county seat of Plymouth County (Plymouth), and school district assignment (Mattapoisett School District).

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.
