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 Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Saint-François-de-Kent.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, 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 — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue 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.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Saint-François-de-Kent is a locality in Kent, New Brunswick, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Saint-François-de-Kent is located at 46.4513°N, 64.6874°W.
Saint-François-de-Kent rests quietly along the Atlantic coast, where the salt-heavy air meets the modest rise of the McIntosh Hill. It lies 4.5 km east-south-east of Grand-Bouctouche, NB (from Grand-Bouctouche, NB: bearing 115°T), and is situated 11.0 km north-north-east of Champdoré. The landscape here is defined by the slow, deliberate movement of the Little Buctouche River as it carves a path toward the sea, mirroring the heavy, bruised purples of the sky during the late afternoon. Low-lying fields stretch toward the water, their grasses turning to brittle gold under the weight of the season, while the horizon stays wide and unencumbered. In the transition between the rising ground and the shore, the light possesses a clarity that makes every fence line and weathered building appear as if it has been held in place by the sheer persistence of the wind. The historical character of Saint-François-de-Kent draws from a long lineage of families who have worked the adjacent lands and the coastal inlets with a steady, pragmatic devotion. Life in Saint-François-de-Kent centers on the seasonal shifts, where the economy remains tied to the cycles of the water and the traditional harvest of the region. Neighbors navigate the daily requirements of their work with a quiet focus, rarely needing to look beyond the immediate demands of their trade. Even now, the stillness of the morning is often punctuated only by the distant, rhythmic creak of equipment or the sharp call of gulls circling the Little Buctouche River, grounding the people in a daily routine that values endurance over haste.
Saint-François-de-Kent s'étire le long de la côte atlantique, là où le souffle salin imprègne les terres basses et façonne la silhouette des jours. À proximité de la colline McIntosh, le terrain s'incline avec une patience minérale vers le tracé sinueux de la rivière Little Buctouche, dont les eaux calmes reflètent la clarté changeante du ciel acadien. Dans cette contrée façonnée par les vents marins, l'existence suit le rythme lent des marées et la persistance d'un héritage agricole qui défie l'érosion des années. Les foyers, dispersés sur ces étendues fertiles, conservent une intimité silencieuse, presque recueillie, tandis que la lumière du crépuscule dépose sur les champs une teinte dorée, révélant la texture brute du sol et la robustesse des boisés avoisinants. Saint-François-de-Kent demeure ce repère où le regard porte loin, vers l'horizon infini de l'Atlantique, capturant l'essence d'un quotidien fait de labeur et de respect pour les éléments. L'air y est pur, chargé d'une humidité vivifiante qui monte des berges de la rivière Little Buctouche, rappelant à chacun que la vie ici se mesure à la fidélité envers ce paysage dépouillé, à la fois austère et profondément accueillant.
