How to Use This Beesleys Point, New Jersey Map

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

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.

Beesleys Point commands a low-slung horizon where the brackish veins of Flat Creek bleed into the wider salt marshes. It lies 3.3 miles west of Ocean City, NJ (from Ocean City, NJ: bearing 269°T), and is situated 9.1 miles south-southwest of Egg Harbor. The landscape here is defined by a porous edge where the firm earth yields to the sway of the tides, keeping a watchful distance from the restless Atlantic Ocean just two miles to the east. Across the water, the silhouette of Tuckahoe River Island breaks the flat expanse of the estuary, providing a skeletal anchor for the shifting silt and seagrass. The light at this latitude possesses a peculiar, translucent quality, turning the marsh reeds into stalks of burnished copper as the sun slips toward the hidden interior. Beyond the immediate reach of the shoreline, the vast, protected expanse of the Tuckahoe Wildlife Management Area serves as a quiet buffer, preserving a wild, unmanicured character that resists the encroaching pace of the modern coast.

Beesleys Point carries the weight of a working history, once defined by the rhythmic labor of the ferry crossings that bridged the gaps between these isolated marsh islands. The local economy has long mirrored the temperament of the water, shifting from the industry of the docks to a quiet, residential endurance that values the silence of the neighboring woods. While the distant shadows of Belleplain State Forest suggest a deep, wooded solitude, the immediate life of Beesleys Point remains bound to the salt air and the seasonal migration of the tides. The air here holds the faint, metallic tang of the sea, a reminder that the land is merely a temporary reprieve from the Atlantic Ocean. It is a place where the architecture of daily life remains sparse and functional, favoring the sturdy utility of a coastal outpost over the ornamental vanity found in busier reaches of the state.

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.
