You can change between standard map view and satellite map view by clicking the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. You can use the zoom buttons on the lower right side of the map to zoom in or out to street-level detail.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — Geoscience Australia topographic mapping and the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 sheets — plus a labelled MGA grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below. You will find live weather, local and world news further down the page.

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 Geoscience Australia National Base Map — seamless topographic mapping covering the mainland, Tasmania and the external territories. NATMAP 250K shows the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 map sheets, mosaicked nationwide — the printed sheets generations of Australians navigated the outback with. The search box finds any Australian town, suburb or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Kirribilli.
Reading the map like a paper sheet. Click Grid to overlay the Map Grid of Australia (MGA), 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.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as an MGA grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what emergency services and 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 mobile coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load, which across much of inland Australia is most of the time.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Kirribilli unfurls along the northern shore of Sydney Harbour, a ribbon of vibrant green and ochre clinging to steep, undulating slopes that plunge towards the restless, steel-blue water. It lies 2.3 km north-north-east of Sydney, NSW (from Sydney, NSW: bearing 14°T), and is situated 11.2 km north-north-west of Maroubra. From its foreshores, the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge rises, a colossal iron lace against the sky, its pylons like ancient sentinels guarding the passage. The air here carries the briny tang of the sea, mingled with the sweet perfume of jacarandas and the subtle, earthy scent of the gum trees that dot the residential streets. Sunlight, when it breaks through the coastal haze, paints the weathered sandstone facades of grand Victorian homes with a warm, golden hue, while modern apartments gleam with glass, reflecting the ceaseless dance of ferries and yachts below. The character of Kirribilli is a fascinating blend of the stately and the intimate, a place where grand views are commonplace, yet quiet, leafy enclaves offer moments of serene seclusion.
The history of Kirribilli is deeply entwined with the colonial settlement of Sydney, its land once part of larger pastoral estates before being subdivided and developed into the desirable enclave it is today. Early aspirations were for a genteel residential district, a vision largely realised through the construction of elegant homes and public spaces. The local economy, once perhaps touched by maritime activities due to its harbour frontage, now thrives on its proximity to the central business district and its appeal as a prestigious residential address. Tourism, of course, plays a significant role, drawing visitors to marvel at the harbour vistas and the sheer engineering feat of the bridge. Notable landmarks, beyond the bridge itself, include the former bathing pavilion at Milson Park, a charming relic of a bygone era, and the Admiral's House, a historic residence that speaks of the area's enduring elegance. The daily rhythm of Kirribilli is one of quiet purpose, punctuated by the cheerful chug of ferries and the distant hum of city life, a sophisticated yet relaxed existence unfolding against one of the world's most spectacular natural backdrops.

Real-time local news and world news feeds keep the page current, while an editorially written description provides background on Kirribilli, in the North Sydney Council local government area.
Detailed location data for Kirribilli includes the postcode (2061), telephone area code (02), and local government area (North Sydney Council), with an ABS remoteness classification of Major Cities of Australia. These are among the most commonly searched location details for any Australian city, town or locality.
Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Australian town, suburb or landmark by name; offers Geoscience Australia topographic mapping and the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 sheets as base layers; overlays a labelled Map Grid of Australia (MGA) so the map can be read like a printed topographic sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as an MGA grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require mobile coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from Geoscape Administrative Boundaries (GDA2020) and enriched with GeoNames and Australian Bureau of Statistics data, matched by coordinate proximity — ensuring the correct Kirribilli is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
