How to Use This Aillik, Newfoundland and Labrador Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Aillik, Newfoundland and Labrador. 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 to zoom in and out.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, 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).

Drag the map to pan to any area of Newfoundland and Labrador or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Aillik and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.

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 Aillik.

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.

About Aillik, Newfoundland and Labrador

Aillik is a settlement in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. It is classified as a town. Aillik is located at 55.2128°N, 59.2071°W.

Aillik stands as a rugged sentinel upon the Atlantic coast, where the raw edges of the continent meet the cold, salt-heavy breath of the northern sea. It lies 18.4 km north of Makkovik, NL (from Makkovik, NL: bearing 359°T), and is situated 28.9 km north-east of Kaipokok. The land surrounding Aillik rises toward the imposing form of the Kaipokok Hill, a dark silhouette that anchors the horizon against the shifting moods of the sky. Just a short distance inland, the quiet waters of Banana Lake mirror the vast, pale light of the subarctic dusk, offering a stillness that contrasts with the relentless surge of the nearby tides. This terrain holds a stark, stripped-back beauty, where the wind carries the scent of lichen and brine, and the ground itself feels ancient beneath the tread of those who move across it. History in Aillik lingers in the weathered remnants of coastal outposts and the memories of those who navigated these treacherous waters to sustain their families through the harvest of the sea. The local economy has long leaned into the rhythms of the coast, reflecting a reliance on the deep-water currents that define life in this northern reach. Further inland, the Makkovik River carves its way through the landscape, acting as a vital artery for the region. Within Aillik, the traditions of the land remain clear and sharp, passed down through generations who understand that existence here requires a steady hand and a deep respect for the unforgiving, yet magnificent, reach of the Atlantic.

It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS 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.
