This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cacouna-Est, Quebec. 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).

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 Cacouna-Est.
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.

Cacouna-Est is a hamlet in Cacouna; Rivière-du-Loup, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Cacouna-Est is located at 47.9953°N, 69.4258°W.
Cacouna-Est rests upon the edge of the St. Lawrence, where the reach of the tide defines the horizon and the salt air clings to the shore. It lies 19.6 km north-north-east of Rivière-du-Loup, QC (from Rivière-du-Loup, QC: bearing 25°T), and is situated 7.1 km west-south-west of L'Isle-Verte. The landscape here is shaped by the presence of the Le Gros Cacouna, a sentinel of stone that rises above the lowlands and watches over the slow, cold currents of the estuary. Near the banks of the Rivière des Vases, the ground softens into marshes where the light at dusk turns the water to a bruised, metallic violet. This is a country of open vistas and heavy skies, where the wind carries the restless energy of the river and the land keeps its secrets beneath a thin, persistent frost. The history of Cacouna-Est is tied to the movement of water and the hard work of those who settled along its shifting margins. Local life remains focused on the rhythms of the coast, far removed from the more hurried pace found near the Chutes de Rivière-du-Loup. Agriculture and the harvest of the sea have long provided the foundation for the local economy, shaping a culture that values the endurance of the seasons over the noise of industry. Even as the modern world encroaches, the people of Cacouna-Est maintain a quiet attachment to the terrain, finding beauty in the way the morning mist clings to the reeds and the steady, unyielding persistence of the tide.
Cacouna-Est s'étire sur les rives du Saint-Laurent avec une patience minérale, là où le fleuve élargit son étreinte vers l'immensité saline. Le terrain s'incline doucement vers les eaux, marquant le paysage d'une rectitude héritée des anciennes seigneuries, tandis que les terres agricoles avoisinantes conservent la mémoire d'un labeur obstiné contre le climat rigoureux. Près du Gros Cacouna, la terre semble hésiter entre la solidité de ses champs et la fluidité des courants, offrant une perspective ouverte sur l'horizon gris perle. La Rivière des Vases serpente à travers ce cadre, ses rives modestes accueillant une quiétude que le tumulte moderne ignore souvent. À vingt kilomètres de distance, les Chutes de Rivière-du-Loup maintiennent un murmure lointain dans la mémoire des habitants, rappelant la puissance brute des eaux qui ponctuent la région. Cacouna-Est respire au rythme des marées, dans une lumière de fin de jour qui bleuit les écorces et souligne la rigueur des lignes architecturales. Les résidents y perpétuent un mode de vie tourné vers l'observation des vents et le respect des terres, trouvant dans cette géographie côtière une permanence rassurante. Ici, le ciel et l'eau se répondent sans artifice, conférant à chaque maison et chaque sillon une noblesse austère, propre à cette frange du Québec où le fleuve domine tout.
