Explore Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey. 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 New Jersey 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 Atlantic Highlands.
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.

Atlantic Highlands rises sharply from the shoreline, where the steady pulse of the Many Mind Creek carves a path toward the horizon. It lies 4.5 miles east-northeast of Middletown, NJ (from Middletown, NJ: bearing 78°T), and is situated 7.5 miles north-northwest of Long Branch. The landscape is defined by a steep elevation that grants the streets a verticality rare for the region, offering a vantage point where the salt-heavy air clarifies the distance to the Atlantic Ocean. At the edge of the slope, Many mind Avenue Park provides a quiet green threshold where the land abruptly yields to the sky, and one can watch the light catch the water near Skeleton Hill Island, two miles off the coast. Inland, the gentle reach of Haskell Pond settles into the terrain, its stillness a cool contrast to the restless movement of the tides that shape the character of the shoreline.
Atlantic Highlands maintains a rhythm tethered to its maritime heritage, having long served as a harbor for those who look toward the water for their livelihood and leisure. The economy here is inextricably linked to the harbor, where the daily transit of vessels keeps the local spirit anchored in the traditions of the sea, even as the commute to distant centers of industry defines the modern working day. While the Mount Pleasant Hills stand as a distant, hazy silhouette against the western sky, the immediate focus remains on the harborfront and the Victorian architecture that defines the older residential corridors. In the evenings, the atmosphere settles into a profound quiet, where the sound of the wind through the trees and the distant, rhythmic wash of the Atlantic Ocean provide a constant, grounding baseline for those who make their lives on these heights.

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.
