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 Port-aux-Quilles.
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.

Port-aux-Quilles is a hamlet in Saint-Siméon; Charlevoix-Est, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Port-aux-Quilles is located at 47.9117°N, 69.8611°W.
Port-aux-Quilles rests where the rugged terrain of Saint-Siméon meets the expansive, cold waters of the St. Lawrence. It lies 5.0 km east-south-east of Secteur de Port-aux-Quilles, QC (from Secteur de Port-aux-Quilles, QC: bearing 112°T), and is situated 8.9 km north of Saint-Siméon. The landscape is defined by the steep, rising presence of the Montagne de la Croix, which casts long, cooling shadows across the lower reaches as the sun begins its descent. Nearby, the Rivière du Port aux Quilles carves a path toward the coast, its movement constant against the quietude of the surrounding woods. Hidden within the higher elevations, Lac Ennis sits as a still, dark mirror reflecting the shifting clouds, lying only a short distance from the primary settlements. The air here holds the sharp, salt-tinged scent of the estuary, a bracing clarity that settles over the land and sharpens the edges of the horizon at dusk. Life in Port-aux-Quilles has long been shaped by the proximity of the water and the demands of the difficult, sloping earth. The economy remains linked to the seasonal cycles of the coast, where the resourcefulness of the inhabitants mirrors the resilience required to thrive in Charlevoix-Est. Traditions here are quiet and private, carried forward by families who have worked these slopes for generations, maintaining a focus on the immediate needs of the land and the harvest. Even as modern life touches the edges of the region, the daily pace of Port-aux-Quilles stays aligned with the turning of the tides and the slow, deliberate growth of the forest, preserving a sense of endurance that feels as solid as the stone of the mountainside.
Port-aux-Quilles se déploie avec une retenue sauvage sur les rives escarpées du Saint-Laurent, là où le fleuve impose sa présence immense et glacée. À l’abri des vents dominants, le terrain s’élève vers la Montagne de la Croix, dont la silhouette massive domine les eaux sombres de la Rivière du Port aux Quilles. Non loin de là, les eaux tranquilles du Lac Ennis conservent le silence des forêts environnantes, offrant un contraste apaisant avec le flux incessant du grand courant maritime. L’histoire de Port-aux-Quilles se lit dans la rudesse de son sol et la ténacité de ses habitants, qui ont su tirer profit des richesses forestières et de la vigueur des courants fluviaux pour bâtir un mode de vie humble. Lorsque le crépuscule s’étire, une lumière bleutée enveloppe les rives, révélant la texture minérale des rochers et la rigueur de cette terre charlevoisienne. Chaque demeure semble guetter le passage des navires au loin, les pieds solidement plantés dans une géographie où la nature dicte ses propres lois, sans jamais se laisser dompter par les hommes qui, depuis des générations, observent le ciel changer au-dessus des cimes.
