Explore Bangham, South Australia, Australia, with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Bangham, SA 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 Bangham, South Australia, 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 South Australia or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Bangham 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 Bangham.
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.

Bangham rests in a landscape of broad horizons, where the ochre earth, baked by the persistent South Australian sun, meets a sky that often stretches in a boundless, pale blue canvas. It lies 139.0 km north of Mount Gambier, SA (from Mount Gambier, SA: bearing 4°T), and is situated 42.4 km north-north-east of Naracoorte. The terrain here is gently rolling, a subtle topography that hints at ancient geological forces rather than dramatic upheaval. Patches of sparse grassland, dotted with hardy, salt-tolerant shrubs, give way in places to stands of mallee scrub, their gnarled limbs reaching skyward like arthritic fingers. The air itself carries a dry, clean scent, often tinged with the faint, sweet perfume of eucalypts that line the infrequent watercourses, their silvery-green leaves rustling with a whisper that seems to echo the vastness of the surrounding country. The quality of light in the late afternoon is particularly striking; it transforms the muted colours of the earth into a spectrum of warm, burnished tones, casting long, attenuated shadows that stretch across the plains.
The story of Bangham is intrinsically linked to the fertile, if often challenging, agricultural lands of the Tatiara. For generations, this region has been shaped by the dedication of farmers and graziers, who coaxed sustenance from the soil, primarily through sheep grazing and, more recently, the cultivation of grains. The local economy, while modest, hums with the quiet industry of these primary producers, their efforts underpinning the very character of Bangham. While not a hub of grand historical monuments, the enduring spirit of resilience and self-reliance is etched into the local identity, a quiet testament to those who have worked this land. The few buildings that comprise Bangham stand as practical structures, serving the needs of the surrounding agricultural community, their presence a modest but vital anchor in this expansive rural setting.

This page provides a street and satellite map of Bangham, South Australia. 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 Bangham, in the Tatiara Dc local government area.
Detailed location data for Bangham includes the postcode (5268), telephone area code (08), and local government area (Tatiara Dc), with an ABS remoteness classification of Outer 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 Bangham is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
