Explore Port Of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Port Of Brisbane, QLD 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 Port Of Brisbane, Queensland, 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 Queensland or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Port Of Brisbane 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 Port Of Brisbane.
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.

Port Of Brisbane is a locality in the Brisbane City local government area of Queensland, Australia. The locality covers an area of 24.6 km². It sits at an elevation of around 4 m above sea level. It lies approximately 17 km east-northeast of Brisbane. Port Of Brisbane is located at 27.3857°S, 153.1738°E. It observes Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) - no daylight saving. Postcode: 4178.
Port Of Brisbane sprawls across the low-lying coastal plains, a landscape defined by the meandering channels of the river and the vast, salt-tinged expanse of Moreton Bay. It lies 17.4 km east-north-east of Brisbane City, QLD (from Brisbane City, QLD: bearing 57°T), and is situated 12.8 km north-north-west of Birkdale. Here, the land whispers of tidal shifts and the patient work of water; mangrove roots, a tangled filigree against the mud, hold the earth firm, while the air, thick with humidity and the faint, briny tang of the sea, carries the cries of seabirds. The light, especially as the day begins to ebb, washes the scene in hues of apricot and rose, reflecting off the broad, placid surfaces of the waterways that are the very arteries of this place. The terrain is flat, a gentle surrender to the sea, punctuated by the organised geometry of industrial infrastructure and the scattered green of coastal vegetation.
The history of Port Of Brisbane is inextricably linked to the ebb and flow of commerce and the vital role of its harbour. For generations, this area has been a gateway, a place where goods and ideas have arrived and departed, shaping the local economy from its earliest days. The deep waters here have long been a draw for shipping, facilitating trade that has sustained neighbouring communities and contributed significantly to the broader economic fabric of Queensland. The port's presence has fostered a particular character, one of industriousness and a practical connection to the sea, where the rhythm of cranes and cargo ships is as much a part of the daily soundscape as the lapping of the tide. It is a place that has adapted and evolved, embracing its maritime destiny, its very identity forged in the constant movement of the water and the ceaseless pulse of global connection.

This page provides a street and satellite map of Port Of Brisbane, Queensland. 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 Port Of Brisbane, in the Brisbane City local government area.
Detailed location data for Port Of Brisbane includes the postcode (4178), telephone area code (07), and local government area (Brisbane City), 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 Port Of Brisbane is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
