How to Use This Bayside, Virginia Map

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

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.

About Bayside, Virginia

Bayside is a locality in Mathews County, Virginia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 107. The population density is 24.5 people per km². Bayside is located at 37.7548°N, 75.7129°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 23455, 23138, 22520.

Bayside occupies a low-slung stretch of land where the horizon feels expansive and the air holds a persistent, brackish weight. It lies 12.2 miles east-northeast of Gloucester Point, VA (from Gloucester Point, VA: bearing 66°T), and is situated 16.6 miles north-northeast of Tabb. The landscape here does not reach for the sky but instead bows toward the water, characterized by flat, marshy plains that shift color from a muted emerald in the spring to a brittle, sun-bleached copper by late summer. Deep Creek curls through the periphery, its tidal movements dictating the pulse of the soil, while the silence of the Mathews Land Conservancy Holding provides a buffer of protected wildness against the encroachment of modern development. On clear days, the faint, jagged silhouette of Blackwalnut Ridge haunts the western distance, a reminder of a topography far more rugged than the soft, silt-heavy earth underfoot.

Bayside carries the quiet gravity of a place that has long balanced its colonial agricultural roots with the quiet demands of a modern local economy. Fishing and small-scale maritime commerce have historically defined the movement of labor here, though the rhythm of daily life has transitioned into a steady, methodical pace centered on the maintenance of these coastal fringes. The nearby Poquoson Flats serve as a reminder of the region’s geological patience, a vast, open basin that has dictated the limits of local expansion for generations. While the presence of Big Island offshore provides a focal point for the local imagination, the true character of Bayside remains anchored in its relationship to the water, where the gray, reflected light of dusk softens the edges of the docks and turns the surface of Doctors Creek into a sheet of hammered pewter.
