Explore Myall Lake, New South Wales, Australia, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Myall Lake, NSW map and move it around to re-centre it. 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.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Myall Lake, New South Wales, Australia. 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 New South Wales or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Myall Lake 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 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 Myall Lake.
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.

Myall Lake is a locality in the Mid-Coast Council local government area of New South Wales, Australia. The locality covers an area of 63.0 km². It lies approximately 194 km northeast of Sydney. Myall Lake is located at 32.4296°S, 152.3894°E. It observes Australian Eastern Time (AEST/AEDT). Postcode: 2423. The Australian Bureau of Statistics classifies the area as Inner Regional Australia.
Myall Lake breathes a humid, salt-kissed air, a vast, shallow expanse of freshwater cradled by whispering coastal heaths and dense, emerald rainforests. It lies 77.9 km north-east of Newcastle, NSW (from Newcastle, NSW: bearing 46°T), and is situated 11.5 km west-south-west of Smiths Lake. The water, a shifting palette of pewter and jade, mirrors the vast, often cloud-streaked sky, its surface occasionally rippled by the silent glide of a lone seabird or the determined punt of a fisherman’s dinghy. The surrounding landscape is a tapestry of subtle greens and browns, where ancient eucalypts stand sentinel, their bark peeling like sun-baked parchment, and ferns unfurl their delicate fronds in the dappled shade. The air itself carries the sweet, resinous scent of the bush, a perfume that mingles with the fainter, briny tang drifting in from the neighbouring ocean, creating a uniquely Australian aroma.
This is a place where the quiet hum of nature often drowns out the echoes of human endeavour, though history is etched into the very contours of the land. For millennia, the Awabakal people were custodians of this country, their connection to the waterways and forests a deep, enduring legacy. Later, the arrival of European settlers brought with it the sounds of timber mills, their saws once biting into the magnificent hardwood that cloaked these shores, shaping an economy built on the rich bounty of the forests and the plentiful catches from the lake and its connecting channels to the sea. Today, the rhythm of Myall Lake is largely dictated by the gentle ebb and flow of tourism, with visitors drawn to the tranquil waters for boating, fishing, and the sheer, restorative peace of its wild beauty, a stark contrast to the bustling coastal towns that lie a short drive away.

This page provides a street and satellite map of Myall Lake, New South Wales. Live weather conditions with current observations and a 7-day forecast are powered by Open-Meteo. Real-time local news and world news feeds keep the page current, while an editorially written description provides background on Myall Lake, in the Mid-Coast Council local government area.
Detailed location data for Myall Lake includes the postcode (2423), telephone area code (02), and local government area (Mid-Coast Council), with an ABS remoteness classification of Inner Regional 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 Myall Lake is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
