Explore Remsenburg, New York, 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 Remsenburg, 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 Remsenburg.
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.

Remsenburg unfolds as a quiet expanse of flat, salt-scrubbed geography where the horizon is defined by the persistent, cooling influence of the Atlantic Ocean just two miles to the south. It lies 6.9 miles southeast of Manorville, NY (from Manorville, NY: bearing 131°T), and is situated 7.9 miles south-southwest of Riverhead. The land here remains largely defined by the quiet meanderings of Heils Creek, which channels the tides through the marshy perimeter of the landscape. Across the way, the low silhouette of Swan Island punctuates the water, serving as a silent sentinel between the mainland and the wider reach of the sea. Expanses of SOUTHAMPTON TOWN Land preserve the natural character of the terrain, keeping the development sparse and the air heavy with the sharp, clean scent of brine that rises from the coast. Even when the light softens toward evening, the flat topography refuses to mimic the drama of the distant Appalachian Mountains, favoring instead a subtle, horizontal grace that prioritizes the sky and the shifting, pearlescent quality of the afternoon atmosphere.
Remsenburg maintains a deliberate, self-contained pace that separates its identity from the more frantic, commercialized stretches of the surrounding region. The local economy has long leaned away from large-scale industry, favoring a preservationist approach that respects the historical architecture of the residential lanes and the quiet, agricultural legacy of the soil. While Beaverdam Pond lies three miles inland, providing a freshwater contrast to the brackish influence of the coast, the rhythm of daily life here remains tethered to the tides and the seasonal migration of light. Residents often navigate the transition between the solitude of the interior fields and the proximity of the water, acknowledging that the character of the place is built upon this specific, narrow intersection of land and maritime air. It is a location that values the quietude of its own borders, leaving the more congested corridors of the island to those who prefer a louder, less deliberate existence.

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.
