This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Gravel, 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 Gravel.
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.

Gravel is a locality in Saint-Siméon; Bonaventure, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Gravel is located at 48.1114°N, 65.5803°W.
Gravel rests quietly along the St. Lawrence, where the land holds the cool, persistent dampness of the northern tides. It lies 21.6 km east-south-east of New Richmond, QC (from New Richmond, QC: bearing 105°T), and is situated 9.6 km north-west of Bonaventure. The Rivière Saint-Siméon traces a path near the settlement, its current a constant, low-frequency hum against the stones of the shoreline. Nearby, the silhouette of Le Calvaire rises above the terrain, watching over the water as the light at dusk turns the surface of the river into a sheet of hammered pewter. The air here carries a sharp clarity, smelling of salt and damp earth, grounding Gravel in a landscape that feels both vast and intimate. Life in Gravel follows the steady, predictable pulse of the seasons, shaped by the demands of the coastal climate. Local industry has long looked to the resources of the surrounding woods and waters, maintaining a quiet independence that reflects the rugged nature of the Gaspé Peninsula. Residents often look toward the interior, where Lac du Cinquante Cents sits tucked away some 6 km inland, or toward the distant, rushing energy of Chutes de l'Île du Ruisseau Creux located 9 km away. Throughout the day, the people of Gravel move with a deliberate focus, finding a distinct beauty in the way the morning fog clings to the riverbanks before dissolving under the weight of the rising sun.
Gravel s'étire avec une humilité tranquille sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le regard s'aventure vers l'horizon liquide, non loin du Calvaire dont la présence semble ordonner le silence des terres environnantes. La brise marine remonte le cours de la Rivière Saint-Siméon, apportant avec elle une humidité qui imprègne les sols et colore le crépuscule d'une teinte argentée, presque irréelle, sur les chemins de Gravel. À quelques lieues de ce rivage, la géographie se fait plus secrète, le Lac du Cinquante Cents conservant sa quiétude immobile à six kilomètres de distance, tandis que le fracas lointain des Chutes de l'Île du Ruisseau Creux, situées à neuf kilomètres, ponctue la respiration du territoire. L'existence ici se déploie selon une lenteur mesurée, façonnée par la proximité des eaux et la rigueur d'un climat qui exige une vigilance constante. Les habitants, héritiers d'une patience acquise devant l'immensité du fleuve, vivent en harmonie avec cette topographie austère, sculptée par les courants et le passage des glaces. Chaque battement de la vie quotidienne se synchronise avec les marées, transformant chaque lever de soleil en une occasion de contempler la permanence de ce paysage dépouillé, où la terre rencontre l'onde dans une entente silencieuse et durable.

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.
