This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cap-Saint-Jacques, 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 Cap-Saint-Jacques.
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.

Cap-Saint-Jacques is a hamlet in Montréal; Montréal, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Cap-Saint-Jacques is located at 45.4619°N, 73.9186°W.
Cap-Saint-Jacques occupies a quiet stretch of land where the earth meets the expansive waters of Lac Saint-Louis. It lies 15.6 km east of Kanesatake, QC (from Kanesatake, QC: bearing 99°T), and is situated 10.9 km south-south-west of Saint-Eustache. The Rivière à l'Orme traces a soft, winding path through the terrain, its currents carrying the cool breath of the season toward the lake. Nearby, the silhouette of Mont Saint-Pierre rises against the horizon, anchoring the view while Parc national d'Oka stands just 8 km away, offering a dense, green permanence to the surrounding horizon. As the light fades at dusk, the water takes on a bruised, metallic sheen, reflecting the stillness of the shoreline. Chutes Saint-Louis, located 17 km from these banks, remains a distant presence, yet the local air here carries the same crisp, damp clarity that defines the wider region. The history of Cap-Saint-Jacques persists in the lingering character of its soil, which has long supported the quiet traditions of agriculture and land stewardship. Life here moves with the cycle of the sun and the shifting levels of the Rivière à l'Orme, grounding the daily habits of those nearby in a persistent, physical reality. The land serves as a threshold between the reach of the water and the rising slopes of the interior, maintaining a balance that resists the acceleration of modern demands. Even in the middle of a busy afternoon, the rustle of leaves and the steady movement of the river suggest a depth of time that feels both ancient and immediate, marking the identity of the land with a simple, enduring weight.
Cap-Saint-Jacques s’étire avec une patience minérale sur les rives du Lac Saint-Louis, là où la terre semble hésiter avant de se laisser absorber par l'eau. Le regard y suit les méandres de la Rivière à l'Orme, dont le courant lent porte les échos d'une agriculture ancienne, désormais apaisée sous le souffle des vents dominants. À l'horizon, le profil du Mont Saint-Pierre dessine une ligne familière contre le ciel changeant, tandis que la lumière du crépuscule dépose sur les champs une teinte cuivrée, presque irréelle. À huit kilomètres de là, le Parc national d'Oka garde le silence des forêts profondes, et plus loin, les Chutes Saint-Louis ponctuent le cours des eaux d'un fracas sourd qui parvient jusqu'aux terres hautes de la pointe. La vie à Cap-Saint-Jacques se règle sur ce rythme lent, celui des cycles agricoles qui ont modelé les granges et les chemins, conservant le souvenir d'une terre labourée par les générations. L'air y est saturé d'une humidité douce qui, dès les premières lueurs du matin, transforme la végétation en un monde de perles liquides. Chaque sentier parcouru confirme cette alliance entre le sol et les courants, dans cet espace où la géographie dicte ses lois avec une élégance austère et immuable.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. 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.
