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

Kamouraska is a post office in Kamouraska; Kamouraska, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Kamouraska is located at 47.5619°N, 69.8722°W.
Kamouraska occupies a singular position where the land reaches out to meet the vast, tidal expanse of the St. Lawrence. It lies 23.1 km east-south-east of La Malbaie, QC (from La Malbaie, QC: bearing 116°T), and is situated 6.1 km north-west of Saint-Pascal. The Rivière Kamouraska carves a quiet path through the terrain, its waters mirroring the shifting slate and indigo tones of the sky as they approach the coast. Along Le Cap, the geology asserts itself in jagged, weathered outcroppings that hold the warmth of the sun long after the afternoon light has begun to fade. The air here carries a sharp, saline clarity, a constant reminder of the deep water pressing against the shoreline. Salt-crusted grasses sway in the wind, and the rhythm of the tides dictates the movement of the day, pulling the horizon closer or pushing it toward the far reaches of the river channel. History lingers in the architecture of Kamouraska, where the sturdy lines of early stone structures stand against the elements with a stubborn, quiet grace. Once a bustling hub for maritime trade and regional commerce, Kamouraska now thrives on a blend of small-scale agriculture and a deep respect for the maritime heritage that defined its founding families. Visitors and residents alike gravitate toward the waterfront, where local artisans and producers offer goods that reflect the character of the soil and the bounty of the estuary. Life in Kamouraska moves with a deliberate purpose, whether it is the tending of fields or the maintenance of the historic facades that line the main route, ensuring that the identity of the village persists through the changing seasons.
Kamouraska déploie sa silhouette singulière sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où l'air marin imprègne les façades blanchies par les hivers rigoureux et les étés de brume légère. Le regard se porte invariablement vers Le Cap, promontoire altier qui domine l'immensité des eaux, tandis que la Rivière Kamouraska serpente avec une discrétion minérale vers le fleuve, marquant de son tracé le sol fertile où s'enracine une longue tradition agricole. La lumière du crépuscule y possède une densité particulière, une clarté argentée qui semble suspendre le mouvement du monde sur les rives escarpées. Kamouraska conserve dans ses architectures anciennes le poids d'une histoire forgée par le labeur des premiers établissements, une résilience façonnée par les marées et les vents salins. Les chemins qui longent le rivage racontent la vie simple, rythmée par la présence constante du Saint-Laurent, dont les courants modèlent inlassablement le littoral. Ici, la terre et l'eau s'accordent dans une quiétude austère, offrant une présence physique qui captive le voyageur par sa sobriété même. Chaque détail, du bois patiné des granges aux pierres polies par le ressac, affirme une identité forgée par une géographie exigeante, sans jamais chercher à séduire par autre chose que sa propre vérité.
