How to Use This Asharoken, New York Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Asharoken, New York. 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 York 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 Asharoken.

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.

Asharoken occupies a slender, sun-bleached peninsula that divides the quiet, tidal waters from the broader expanse of Smithtown Bay. It lies 3.3 miles west-northwest of Fort Salonga, NY (from Fort Salonga, NY: bearing 289°T), and is situated 10.0 miles east-northeast of Oyster Bay. The landscape is defined by the thin, fragile reach of land that buffers the coastline, where the salt-heavy air clings to the dune grasses and the horizon is dominated by the rhythmic, shifting tides. Beyond the immediate reach of the shore, the silhouette of Duck Island rests upon the water like a dark, submerged anchor, while the distant, hazy suggestion of the Appalachian Mountains occasionally haunts the western sky during the clearest, coldest afternoons. Within the boundaries of the SUFFOLK COUNTY DEPARTMENT Land, the terrain remains unburdened by development, allowing the natural salt marshes and sandy ridges to define the character of the ground.

Asharoken carries a quiet gravity in its layout, a residential sanctuary that grew from the early, isolated settlements of the maritime frontier into a place of private, deliberate stillness. The local economy and daily rhythm are defined not by commerce, but by the maintenance of this narrow corridor, where the movement of the seasons is measured by the changing intensity of the light reflecting off the bay. Life here moves with the tide, influenced by a geography that dictates a singular, linear path for any traveler moving between the water and the residential enclaves. Far removed from the inland bustle, the residents look toward the water for their sense of scale, finding a steady, unchanging peace in a landscape that has, for generations, resisted the urge to be anything other than a thin, protective barrier against the sea.

About This Asharoken Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Asharoken, New York. Coordinates: 40.93927, -73.38506. 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 Asharoken includes the ZIP code (11768), telephone area code (516), county seat of Suffolk County (Riverhead), and school district assignment (Northport-East Northport Union Free 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.
