How to Use This Yorktown, Virginia Map

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

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.

Yorktown occupies a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of Yorktown Creek as it carves a path through the dense, verdant woodlands of the inland plains. It lies 1.3 miles south-southwest of Gloucester Point, VA (from Gloucester Point, VA: bearing 214°T), and is situated 8.5 miles north-northwest of Tabb. The earth here holds a heavy, dark moisture, supporting thickets of oak and pine that obscure the horizon, save for the distant, hazy silhouette of Blackwalnut Ridge rising eleven miles to the west. Sunlight filters through the canopy in thin, slanted shafts, illuminating the quiet stillness of Wormley Pond, where the water remains undisturbed by the bustle of the modern world. Beyond the immediate canopy, the terrain levels into broad, fertile stretches that carry the scent of damp soil and ancient growth, grounding the architecture of Yorktown in a geography that feels both permanent and observant.

Memory persists in the soil of Yorktown, where the echoes of past conflicts are muted by the steady pulse of a local economy rooted in education and the preservation of long-standing colonial legacies. Residents move with a measured pace, their lives punctuated by the maintenance of historical sites and the quiet administration of the nearby Gloucester Point Beach Park, which serves as a sanctuary for those seeking the solitude of the interior woods. While the distant, low-lying expanse of Poquoson Flats marks the geographic limits of the region, the life of the locality remains tethered to the slow, deliberate rhythms of the inland seasons. The air here feels thick with the weight of centuries, a quality that lends a sense of gravity to the daily routine of those who reside where the legacy of the nation remains etched into the very dirt beneath their feet.
