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 Beatty, South Australia, Australia. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views.

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 Beatty.
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.

Beatty rests in a broad, sun-kissed valley where the earth, a rich ochre, softens under a sky that often stretches to an improbable blue. It lies 90.8 km north-east of Gawler, SA (from Gawler, SA: bearing 45°T), and is situated 36.1 km east-north-east of Eudunda. The land here is a study in patient resilience, a place where the wind, carrying the scent of dry grasses and distant eucalyptus, whispers secrets across low, rolling hills. Sparse stands of hardy trees offer a dappled shade, their leaves rustling with a dry, papery sound that is the constant soundtrack to life in Beatty. The air itself seems to hold a quiet warmth, even on cooler days, a lingering embrace from the sun that shapes the very character of this landscape.
This is a country shaped by the enduring spirit of those who have sought a living from its soil, a history woven with the threads of agriculture and the quiet perseverance of generations. The local economy, once dominated by the sturdy pulse of sheep and wheat, now also feels the gentle stirrings of viticulture, with vines finding purchase in the rich earth. The Mid Murray Council region, of which Beatty is a part, has always been a place where the land dictates the rhythm of life, and the occasional scattering of historic farm buildings, weathered by sun and time, stand as quiet testaments to that enduring relationship. The quality of the light at dusk, when the sky bleeds into hues of apricot and rose, seems to hold a particular magic here, a moment where the vastness of the landscape feels both humbling and deeply personal.

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 Beatty is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
