How to Use This Longport, New Jersey Map

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

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.

Longport occupies the southernmost tip of an island barrier, where the land narrows into a slender finger of sand pressed firmly against the restless Atlantic Ocean. It lies 3.2 miles southwest of Ventnor, NJ (from Ventnor, NJ: bearing 234°T), and is situated 6.5 miles west-southwest of Atlantic City. The air here carries a heavy, salt-sweet moisture that clings to the skin, cooling the skin as the sun dips toward the horizon and turns the dunes into shifting mounds of pale gold. To the west, the quiet waters of Hospitality Creek carve a path through the marsh, separating the mainland from the solitude of Dune Island. While the horizon remains flat and expansive, a traveler might catch a faint, hazy suggestion of Sandy Ridge far to the northwest, a reminder of the rising earth that lies worlds away from this low, sea-level expanse. Those seeking the embrace of the coast find themselves drawn to the Longport Borough Beach or Boardwalk, where the rhythmic pulse of the tide dictates the tempo of every passing afternoon.

History flows through Longport as surely as the currents, marking it as a place of retreat that has long guarded the entrance to the surrounding waterways. Once a quiet outpost for mariners and those seeking the solace of the sea, the economy has shifted over the decades toward a serene residential character, favoring the preservation of its quiet, shaded streets over the clamor of nearby commercial centers. The pace of life is measured by the seasonal migration of the sun and the shifting winds that whistle through the dune grass, creating a sense of isolation that feels entirely distinct from the busier stretches of the coast. Though Belleplain State Forest lies sixteen miles to the inland west, the local flora here belongs to the salt-spray and the sand, thriving in a landscape where the only deep water nearby is the Atlantic Ocean or the distant, inland stillness of Bargaintown Pond. Life in Longport moves with a deliberate, quiet grace, defined by the constant, bracing presence of the water and the enduring strength of the barrier sands.
