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 La Grave.
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.

La Grave is a administrative sector in Les Îles-de-la-Madeleine; Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. La Grave is located at 47.2368°N, 61.8358°W.
La Grave clings to the edge of the St. Lawrence, a slender reach of land defined by the salt-heavy air and the constant, shifting presence of the sea. It lies 15.6 km south of Les Îles-de-la-Madeleine, QC (from Les Îles-de-la-Madeleine, QC: bearing 170°T), and is situated 0.9 km east of Havre-Aubert. The horizon here holds a clarity that sharpens the edges of every wooden structure and stone, while the light at dusk bruises the sky with deep, melancholic violet. Le Bassin sits just four kilometers away, a quiet neighbor across the sweep of the Les Demoiselles landscape. Within the borders of La Grave, the architecture remains low to the ground, hunkered against the persistent winds that scour the coast and shape the character of the inhabitants. Life in La Grave follows the tides and the seasonal migration of the maritime economy, where the heritage of the fishery persists in the weathered hulls and the smell of brine that clings to the docks. Artisans and small-scale traders occupy the historic buildings, maintaining a connection to a past where every resource was gathered from the immediate reach of the shore. The atmosphere carries a weight of endurance, an quiet insistence on beauty found in the spare, functional lines of a life lived in direct contact with the northern elements.
La Grave s'étire le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le vent sculpte le relief des Demoiselles avec une insistance minérale. Dans ce secteur de la Gaspésie–Îles-de-la-Madeleine, l'air salin imprègne les galets et les façades de bois qui composent le décor historique de ce port naturel. Les maisons semblent s'agripper au sol face à l'immensité maritime, rappelant les origines modestes de ceux qui ont bâti leur existence sur la pêche et le commerce côtier. À environ quatre kilomètres, Le Bassin calme les ardeurs du large, offrant un contraste de quiétude face aux courants qui agitent les abords immédiats. La lumière du soir transforme les textures, dorant les structures anciennes et soulignant le caractère singulier de La Grave, dont l'identité demeure intimement liée aux rythmes imprévisibles de la marée. Les traditions acadiennes persistent dans la manière dont les habitants occupent cet espace, entre la rudesse du climat et la bienveillance d'un horizon sans limites. Tout ici, du craquement des quais aux silhouettes des bâtiments d'époque, raconte une adaptation patiente aux exigences de l'insularité, loin des terres continentales, dans une solitude préservée que seule la mer vient interrompre avec ses chants monotones et profonds.

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.
