How to Use This North Bay, Wisconsin Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for North Bay, Wisconsin. 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 Wisconsin 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 North Bay.
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.

ZIP codes: 54234, 54202, 53402.North Bay exists as a quiet confluence of water and shoreline, where the edge of Lake Michigan dictates the slow, rhythmic cadence of the seasons. It lies 3.0 miles northwest of Door, WI (from Door, WI: bearing 324°T), and is situated 26.9 miles east of Marinette. The landscape is defined by the immediate presence of the North Bay State Natural Area, which preserves a stretch of wild, undisturbed forest and marshland that feels older than the maps themselves. In the distance, the faint, jagged silhouette of the Door-Leelanau Ridge haunts the horizon, a reminder of the geological forces that once shaped this region. Three Springs Creek winds toward the shore, its clear, cold water cutting through the soil to reach the vast, gray expanse of Lake Michigan, while the light at dusk turns the air a pale, translucent violet, softening the sharp lines of the trees.
History in North Bay remains etched in the quiet industry of those who have long harvested the bounty of the lake and the surrounding woodland. The local economy persists with a steady, unadorned resilience, reflecting the Scandinavian and Central European roots of the families who first cleared these woods to build their lives. Visitors often look toward the distant beacon of Cana Island, a solitary sentinel that marks the shifting currents of the nearby bay. Life moves at a pace governed by the wind and the water, where the Friday supper-club tradition serves as a social anchor, bringing neighbors together under the dim, warm glow of wood-paneled dining rooms to share a meal as the lake air cools outside.

About This North Bay Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of North Bay, Wisconsin. Coordinates: 42.764171, -87.780619. 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 North Bay includes the ZIP code (54234, 54202, 53402), telephone area code (715), county seat of Door County (Sturgeon Bay), and school district assignment (Racine 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.
