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 Heath Point.
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.

Heath Point is a locality in L'Île-d'Anticosti; Minganie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Heath Point is located at 49.0853°N, 61.7003°W.
Heath Point stands as a solitary sentinel at the eastern edge of L'Île-d'Anticosti, where the land yields to the vast and restless expanse of the St. Lawrence. It lies 187.8 km south-east of Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC (from Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC: bearing 133°T), and is situated 32.8 km south-south-east of Cap-de-la-Table. The terrain here holds a stark, salt-stung clarity, defined by the winding passage of the Rivière Lobelia as it cuts toward the sea. Inland, the horizon is marked by the stillness of Lac Schuchert, while the protected reaches of Réserve écologique de la Pointe-Heath preserve the wild, windswept character of the coastal scrub. At dusk, the light loses its golden edge and turns to a thin, metallic silver, casting long shadows that emphasize the rugged, unyielding nature of the shoreline. Economic life at Heath Point has long been defined by the harsh demands of the sea and the isolation of the Minganie coast. The history of the region is written in the survival of those who contended with the elements, finding a lean subsistence in the currents that churn past the headland. While the modern world moves with a different velocity, Heath Point persists with a quiet gravity, observing the tides and the shifting weather patterns that dictate the movement of the day. The proximity to Réserve écologique de la Pointe-Heath ensures that the land remains largely indifferent to human industry, maintaining a silence that feels heavier and more permanent than the fleeting presence of those who pass through.
Heath Point surgit des brumes salines, là où les terres basses de l'Île-d'Anticosti s'effacent devant l'immensité grise du Saint-Laurent. Le vent y balaie les graminées, façonnant un horizon dépouillé dont la rigueur impose un silence attentif. À proximité, les eaux de la Rivière Lobelia serpentent avec une lenteur minérale vers le rivage, irriguant une terre que le temps semble avoir délaissée aux seuls oiseaux migrateurs. Non loin, la Réserve écologique de la Pointe-Heath protège jalousement une flore fragile, tandis que le Lac Schuchert demeure, à quelques kilomètres, une cuvette d'eau sombre nichée dans le relief tourbeux. La lumière du crépuscule décline sur Heath Point en teintes froides, soulignant la rudesse de ce promontoire battu par les courants. Aucune industrie ne vient troubler la solitude de ce sol calcaire, dont l'histoire demeure intimement liée à la patience des éléments et à l'isolement maritime. Ici, la vie humaine s'efface devant la permanence du paysage, laissant place à une sensation d'éternité sauvage. La géographie de Heath Point dicte alors sa propre loi, exigeant de celui qui s'y aventure une humilité profonde face à l'âpreté des côtes minganiennes.

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.
