How to Use This Weweantic, Massachusetts Map

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

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 Weweantic, Massachusetts

Weweantic is a locality in Plymouth County, Massachusetts, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,109. The population density is 641.7 people per km². Weweantic is located at 41.7476°N, 70.7400°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 02571.

Weweantic manifests as a quiet confluence of salt marsh and tidal flow where the land yields gracefully to the Atlantic Ocean. It lies 2.0 miles south-southwest of Wareham, MA (from Wareham, MA: bearing 196°T), and is situated 6.9 miles west of Bourne. Cedar Island Creek carves a winding path through the silt and reeds, its brackish currents dictating the slow pulse of the local landscape. Beyond the immediate reach of the shoreline, the horizon remains flat and unburdened, save for the distant, hazy silhouette of Ridge Hill that anchors the far western view. The air here holds a permanent salinity, an invigorating dampness that clings to the weathered cedar shingles of older homes and muffles the calls of gulls circling over the nearby Cedar Island. A mile inland, the still, dark waters of Blackmere Reservoir offer a freshwater counterpoint to the restless tides, providing a sanctuary of stillness amidst the coastal expanse.

Weweantic sustains a rhythm shaped by centuries of maritime reliance, where the economy has long drifted between the harvesting of the sea and the quiet industry of local trade. The presence of the Cape and Islands Ocean Sanctuary ensures that the waters remain a protected reach, preserving the ecological integrity that has defined this stretch of coast since its earliest settlement. While the local pace is dictated by the turning of the tides rather than the clamor of modern commerce, the character of the place is marked by a persistent, thrifty independence. Residents navigate a landscape where the legacy of past generations is visible in the carefully maintained docks and the sparse, functional architecture that refuses to compete with the sheer scale of the horizon. It is a place that demands a deliberate way of living, rewarding those who find substance in the gray light of dawn and the steady, rhythmic ebbing of the water.

About This Weweantic Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Weweantic, Massachusetts. Coordinates: 41.747597, -70.740024. 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 Weweantic includes the ZIP code (02571), telephone area code (339, 351, 413, 508, 617, 774, 781, 857, 978), county seat of Plymouth County (Plymouth), and school district assignment (Wareham 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.
