Explore Surf Beach, New South Wales, Australia, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Surf Beach, 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 Surf Beach, 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).

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 Surf Beach.
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.

Surf Beach is a locality in the Eurobodalla Shire Council local government area of New South Wales, Australia. The locality covers an area of 4.4 km². It lies approximately 230 km south-southwest of Sydney. Surf Beach is located at 35.7625°S, 150.2054°E. It observes Australian Eastern Time (AEST/AEDT). Postcode: 2536. The Australian Bureau of Statistics classifies the area as Inner Regional Australia.
Surf Beach unfolds as a long, welcoming crescent of pale gold against the restless sapphire of the Tasman Sea. It lies 121.3 km south-south-east of Goulburn, NSW (from Goulburn, NSW: bearing 159°T), and is situated 6.8 km south-south-east of Batemans Bay. The sand, a fine, shifting powder, whispers secrets with each retreating wave, and the air, sharp with brine, carries the distant, rhythmic hiss of the surf. Behind the dunes, hardy coastal heaths, their colours muted by the salt spray, cling tenaciously to the sandy soil, punctuated by the stoic resilience of wind-sculpted ti-trees, their branches gnarled like ancient hands reaching for the sky. This is a place where the land meets the ocean with a generous, unpretentious grace, where the horizon offers an unbroken promise of vastness, and the light at dawn paints the shallows with strokes of rose and lavender.
The quiet hum of Surf Beach is subtly shaped by its maritime heritage and the gentle ebb and flow of its tourist-driven economy. While its origins are not marked by grand pronouncements, the land here has long been a place for respite and recreation, its natural beauty drawing visitors for generations. The surrounding Eurobodalla Shire is a region rich in natural resources, and though Surf Beach itself primarily thrives on the seasonal influx of holidaymakers who come for its renowned stretch of sand and the promise of good waves, its character is interwoven with the broader agricultural and fishing traditions of neighbouring coastal communities. The occasional fishing boat bobbing on the horizon is a quiet nod to the sea's enduring bounty, a reminder that even in this popular holiday haven, the ocean remains a source of sustenance and a powerful, ever-present force.

This page provides a street and satellite map of Surf Beach, 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 Surf Beach, in the Eurobodalla Shire Council local government area.

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 Surf Beach is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
