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

Norway Bay is a resort in Bristol; Pontiac, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Norway Bay is located at 45.5192°N, 76.4175°W.
Norway Bay rests along the northern bank of the Ottawa River, a quiet reach of land defined by the proximity of Haveys Hill. It lies 10.5 km north-north-west of Arnprior, QC (from Arnprior, QC: bearing 334°T), and is situated 11.0 km south-south-east of Shawville. The landscape here feels heavy with the scent of damp earth and pine, especially when the light of late afternoon softens the edges of the fields and settles into the hollows of the terrain. While the Madawaska River flows through the distant hills ten kilometers away, the local atmosphere is held firmly by the vast, open expanse of the water nearby. Lac des Chats sits five kilometers from the shore, its presence felt in the way the air remains cool and moist even during the height of the summer heat. The history of Norway Bay is tied to the movement of timber and the slow clearing of the rugged Pontiac interior, where early settlers sought a foothold in the fertile, rocky soil. Economic life has long been shaped by the seasonal shifts of the land, moving from the demands of agriculture to the quiet preservation of Morris Island Conservation Area, which lies thirteen kilometers away. Visitors often find that the pace of life in Norway Bay adheres to the rising and falling of the river, a cycle that dictates the turning of the seasons for those who call the shore home. Tradition remains a simple matter of maintaining the homesteads and respecting the quietude that settles over the region whenever the sun dips below the horizon.
Norway Bay s’étire le long des rives avec une sérénité qui semble défier l’agitation du monde moderne, offrant aux résidents et aux visiteurs le spectacle d’une lumière dorée s’attardant sur les eaux calmes. La proximité du Lac des Chats, situé à quelques kilomètres, confère à Norway Bay une atmosphère où l’air demeure imprégné d’une fraîcheur constante, celle des grands espaces canadiens où le ciel se confond avec l’horizon. À l’arrière-plan, la silhouette de la colline Haveys domine le relief, veillant sur les terres agricoles et les habitations qui ont façonné l’identité de ce secteur du Pontiac. Le murmure de la rivière Madawaska, qui s’écoule à une dizaine de kilomètres, ajoute une note mélodique à la quiétude de la région, tandis que la zone de conservation Morris Island, distante de treize kilomètres, préserve une nature sauvage propice aux observations silencieuses. Le rythme de vie y suit les mouvements imperceptibles de la nature, privilégiant les traditions héritées des premiers colons qui ont défriché ces sols fertiles. Chaque sentier, chaque perspective vers les eaux changeantes rappelle la force tranquille de ce paysage, où le temps semble suspendu dans une contemplation 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.
Location data for Norway Bay 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.
