This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Carleton, 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).
Drag the map to pan to any area of Quebec or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Carleton 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 Carleton.
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.

Carleton is a station in Carleton-sur-Mer; Avignon, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Carleton is located at 48.1150°N, 66.1319°W.
Carleton rests along the edge of the St. Lawrence, where the salt-heavy air meets the persistent growth of the Buttereau des Pins Rouges. It lies 18.9 km east-north-east of Baie-des-Hérons, QC (from Baie-des-Hérons, QC: bearing 73°T), and is situated 1.6 km north-north-west of Carleton-sur-Mer. The land here holds a particular clarity at dusk, when the light flattens against the water and the distant horizon seems to pull the sky down into the tide. Near the shore, the Barachois de Carleton acts as a quiet lung for the coastline, filtering the movement of the sea through its sandbars and sheltered shallows. Beyond the immediate reach of the salt spray, the terrain rises to meet the pines, maintaining a steady, watchful presence over the water. Those who walk the edges of the shore feel the cold bite of the northern currents, a reminder of the vast, shifting expanse that defines the character of the coast. Life in Carleton draws its strength from a long history of maritime industry and the endurance of those who have worked the waters for generations. The local economy persists through a balance of trade and the quiet rhythms of regional commerce, grounded by a deep connection to the natural features that surround the settlement. Travelers often venture toward the Parc national de Miguasha to witness the weight of deep time preserved in the stone, while the Rivière Stewart Est carves its own path through the landscape nearby. Carleton maintains a distinct composure, shaped by the cycles of the seasons and the constant, rhythmic breath of the St. Lawrence.
Carleton s’étire le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le Buttereau des Pins Rouges offre une protection naturelle contre les souffles salins venus du large. La lumière du crépuscule y dépose une teinte cuivrée sur le sable, illuminant les silhouettes des embarcations qui rappellent le lien ancien entre les habitants et les eaux nourricières. À quelques kilomètres, le Barachois de Carleton dessine une courbe paisible dans le paysage, tandis que la Rivière Stewart Est poursuit son cours discret vers l'estuaire. L’héritage acadien imprègne les gestes quotidiens, une persistance tranquille qui se transmet dans la manière d’arpenter le rivage ou d’observer les marées. Plus loin, le Parc national de Miguasha conserve en ses strates rocheuses le souvenir des âges lointains, un rappel silencieux de la profondeur géologique qui soutient la terre ferme. Carleton vit au rythme d’une mer qui ne se lasse jamais de revenir vers les quais, forgeant une identité tournée vers l'horizon. Les résidents connaissent le poids de l'air marin et la rudesse des hivers, mais ils trouvent dans cette géographie un équilibre entre la force des éléments et la permanence de leurs demeures installées sur le relief. Entre la terre et l'eau, chaque aspect de la vie ici puise sa force dans une nature qui impose sa propre mesure, lente et souveraine.

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.
Location data for Carleton is sourced from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGN), Natural Resources Canada, and verified by coordinates rather than name matching alone. GPS coordinates, province, administrative location and place type are shown in the information panel above.
