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 Tadoussac.
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.

Tadoussac is a village municipality in Tadoussac; La Haute-Côte-Nord, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a large city. Tadoussac is located at 48.1500°N, 69.7167°W.
Tadoussac rests where the deep, cold currents of the Rivière Saguenay surrender to the vast, salt-scented expanse of the St. Lawrence. It lies 9.5 km north-east of Secteur du Lac-Lyonne, QC (from Secteur du Lac-Lyonne, QC: bearing 48°T), and is situated 14.1 km north-east of Secteur Jamay. The land rises in the rugged form of the Colline de l'Anse à l'Eau, a terrain defined by ancient stone and the persistent influence of the northern tides. Just a short distance inland, the quiet surface of Lac de l'Anse à l'Eau reflects the shifting grey skies, offering a stillness that contrasts with the churning confluence of the larger waterways. In the amber light of late afternoon, the hills take on a bruised, violet hue, and the air grows sharp with the brine of the estuary. Long before the current structures took hold, the meeting point of these waters served as a vital exchange site for Indigenous peoples, setting a precedent for the commercial life that would follow. Tadoussac eventually evolved into a primary hub for the fur trade, its strategic harbor becoming a gateway for those navigating the interior of the continent. Today, the economy leans heavily into the movement of people and the observation of the giants that frequent the deep channels offshore. The local industry maintains a steady pulse, driven by the seasonal arrival of visitors who come to witness the intersection of river and sea, ensuring that commerce remains tied to the natural movements of the currents. The character of Tadoussac is defined by a sense of permanence amidst the shifting tides, seen in the white-washed chapel that has stood as a landmark for generations. Traditions here are kept by those who understand the temperament of the water, and the culture remains grounded in the realities of life on the coast. While the village does not boast grand academic institutions or the clamor of urban life, it carries a quiet weight of history that hums beneath the surface of daily interactions. Evenings often bring a profound silence that settles over the Colline de l'Anse à l'Eau, leaving residents and travelers alike to contemplate the immense scale of the landscape and the enduring presence of the tide.
Tadoussac s’étire avec une gravité tranquille sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où les eaux marines rencontrent la rigueur des terres. À la Colline de l'Anse à l'Eau, le regard plonge sur les profondeurs sombres de la Rivière Saguenay, dont le lit semble retenir le souffle des siècles passés. Dans ce cadre, la lumière du crépuscule dépose une patine dorée sur les roches, révélant la texture minérale d'un territoire façonné par les marées et les vents du nord. Non loin, le Lac de l'Anse à l'Eau se dissimule dans un repli du relief, miroir immobile offrant un contraste paisible avec le courant puissant des eaux salines. L’histoire de Tadoussac demeure intimement liée à ces passages navigables, terre de rencontres anciennes où le commerce des fourrures a jadis imposé son rythme aux hommes. Aujourd'hui, l'air salin imprègne les façades, rappelant une identité façonnée par l'immensité du fleuve et la rudesse du climat. Les habitants vivent au rythme d’une existence tournée vers l'horizon, observant le passage des géants des mers qui marquent le quotidien de ce site privilégié. Chaque souffle de brise porte en lui la mémoire des premiers navigateurs, tandis que le relief escarpé maintient Tadoussac dans une solitude majestueuse, isolée et pourtant ouverte sur l'infini des marées.
