Explore Warrenton, Oregon, 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 Warrenton, Oregon. 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 Oregon 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 Warrenton.
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.

Warrenton anchors the landscape where the currents of the Skipanon River move with a deliberate, tidal pulse toward the open sea. It lies 4.7 miles west-southwest of Astoria, OR (from Astoria, OR: bearing 250°T), and is situated 11.9 miles north of Seaside. The air here carries a persistent, salt-thickened dampness that clings to the skin and turns the horizon a soft, bruised gray. Beyond the immediate banks, the terrain flattens into a coastal expanse where the geography is defined by the proximity of the Warrenton Marina. Further inland, the quiet waters of Jetty Lagoon offer a stillness that contrasts with the rhythmic surging of the nearby coastline. On clear days, the silhouette of Coxcomb Hill rises in the distance, providing a fixed point of reference above the low-lying woodland and marshy flats.
Warrenton grew from the labor of those who looked to the water for their livelihood, establishing a foundation built on timber and the bounty of the Pacific. Local industry remains tied to these rugged roots, with the harbor and the Hammond Boat Basin serving as vital centers for fishing fleets and maritime commerce. The economy cycles with the seasons, shifting between the demands of the harvest and the steady, year-round maintenance of vessels that brave the heavy swells. Modern life in Warrenton respects this history of hard work, where the clatter of machinery and the low hum of boat engines provide the background music to daily labor. The local fiber of the economy is resilient, shaped by the practical needs of a population that understands the ocean’s temperament.
Warrenton maintains a cultural character defined by a quiet, grounded independence that shuns pretense for the sake of authenticity. Residents often gather at Skipanon River Park, where the tall grasses sway in the wind and the light at dusk catches the surface of the water in long, golden ribbons. While the pace of life is measured by the tides, the community remains connected to a wider world through the presence of Fry Island visible in the distance, a reminder of the shifting geography of the region. Notable figures such as the renowned pilot Robert Gray, whose maritime legacy is deeply linked to these waters, reflect the town’s long-standing orientation toward exploration and the sea. The atmosphere remains one of honest, open space, where the wind off the water dictates the rhythm of the day and the character of those who choose to call it home.

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.
