This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Pointe-Claire, 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 Pointe-Claire.
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.

Pointe-Claire is a town in Pointe-Claire; Montréal, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Pointe-Claire is located at 45.4486°N, 73.8171°W.
Pointe-Claire rests upon the edge of the island, defined by the expansive, shifting surface of Lac Saint-Louis. It lies 21.6 km west-south-west of Montréal, QC (from Montréal, QC: bearing 252°T), and is situated 12.8 km south-south-west of Laval. The air here carries the damp weight of the water, a cooling breath that softens the hard lines of the shoreline and settles over the nearby Le Tertre. In the fading light of a late afternoon, the horizon stretches flat and wide, turning the expanse of the lake into a sheet of hammered silver that holds the sky in a long, quiet suspension. The land remains low and receptive, shaped by the proximity of the water, while the presence of the Rivière Châteauguay, though distant, seems to anchor the surrounding geography in a stillness that persists even as the seasons turn. Pointe-Claire maintains a dual character, balancing the remnants of its colonial roots with the demands of a modern local economy that hums along its corridors. Historic stone structures stand with a stubborn, quiet dignity, contrasting against the commercial activity that sustains the lives of those who dwell here. Beyond the immediate reach of the streets, the natural world exerts its own influence; the distant Chutes Saint-Louis and the wilder stretches of Parc national d'Oka exist as silent markers on the periphery of the consciousness of the locals. The daily life of Pointe-Claire moves with a deliberate clarity, where the intersection of commerce and heritage creates a space that feels both settled and perpetually alert to the changing weather moving across the water.
Pointe-Claire s'étire avec une élégance tranquille le long des rives du Lac Saint-Louis, où les vents apportent une fraîcheur constante qui semble suspendre le mouvement des heures. La lumière du crépuscule y dépose des reflets d'argent sur les eaux calmes, tandis que le profil du Tertre se dessine doucement à l'horizon, rappelant la permanence d'une géographie façonnée par les éléments. Les résidents observent le passage des voiliers et le rythme immuable des marées intérieures, une habitude héritée des premiers colons qui ont choisi ces terres fertiles pour leur accès direct aux voies navigables. Si la Rivière Châteauguay serpente à une distance mesurée, le paysage demeure dominé par l'immensité du lac, dont la présence influence chaque geste de la vie quotidienne. À quelques lieues, la nature sauvage des Chutes Saint-Louis et la densité boisée du Parc national d'Oka encadrent cette enclave, offrant un contraste saisissant entre le calme des résidences historiques et la vigueur des grands espaces environnants. Pointe-Claire conserve ainsi une identité singulière, marquée par une architecture qui dialogue avec l'horizon, transformant chaque fin de journée en une contemplation silencieuse face à l'étendue bleue qui définit son caractère côtier unique.

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.
