How to Use This Long Beach, New Jersey Map

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

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.

Long Beach maintains a quiet presence where the land yields to the expansive salt air of the Atlantic Ocean. It lies 5.9 miles east-southeast of Stafford, NJ (from Stafford, NJ: bearing 110°T), and is situated 6.2 miles southeast of Barnegat. The shoreline of Long Beach defines the horizon, where the tides pull steadily against the edge of the Municipal Beach. Beyond the immediate coast, the terrain remains low and flat, stretching toward the quiet waters of North Pond only two miles inland. The current of Big Flat Creek flows through the nearby landscape, providing a narrow vein of freshwater movement toward the sea. On clear days, the distant silhouette of Sandy Ridge offers a faint, gray suggestion of height against the sky twenty-five miles away.

Maritime traditions have long shaped the identity of Long Beach, influencing the way residents engage with the surrounding environment. Historically, the local economy relied upon the harvest of the sea and the seasonal movement of goods through the nearby harbor. While industry has evolved, the connection to the water remains a vital fiber of the daily work life in Long Beach. Those who live here often look toward the resources provided by the coast, maintaining a rhythm dictated by the changing seasons and the shifting weather patterns. Further inland, the proximity to the Bass River State Forest provides a contrasting backdrop of dense pine and oak that has supported regional trade for generations.

Cultural life in Long Beach centers on the simple appreciation of the coastal environment and the shared history of the people who settled near Woods Island. The atmosphere encourages a deliberate pace, where the sound of the wind across the dunes serves as a constant companion to those walking the sand. Residents often gather at the Municipal Beach to observe the changing light, which turns a soft, bruised purple as the sun descends behind the mainland. While the area avoids the noise of large urban centers, it holds a distinct character shaped by the intersection of salt marsh and suburban development. Life here is defined by the open horizon, offering a space where the individual can observe the vast, unceasing motion of the water.
