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

Sunnyside unfolds across a gentle, rolling terrain where the rich, dark earth of the paddocks meets the expansive, often brilliant blue of the Tasmanian sky. It lies 24.6 km south-south-east of Devonport, TAS (from Devonport, TAS: bearing 159°T), and is situated 9.2 km east of Sheffield. The air here carries a clean, crisp scent, tinged with the earthy perfume of turned soil and the faint, sweet promise of distant eucalypts. Fields of verdant pasture, interspersed with the more muted tones of cropping land, stretch out like a patchwork quilt, giving way in places to stands of native bushland that whisper with the rustle of unseen creatures. The light, particularly in the late afternoon, possesses a soft, golden quality, bathing the landscape in a warm, mellow glow that seems to linger, imbuing the very air with a tranquil stillness. The roads, often bordered by sturdy, weather-beaten fences, curve and dip with the land, inviting a slow, contemplative journey through this settled country.
The history of Sunnyside is deeply entwined with the agricultural bounty of the land, its early settlers drawn by the promise of fertile soil for farming and grazing. For generations, the rhythm of life here has been dictated by the seasons, the cycles of planting and harvesting, and the tending of livestock, forming the bedrock of the local economy. While large-scale industries are absent, a quiet self-sufficiency prevails, with local businesses catering to the needs of the farming community and a growing appreciation for the region's natural beauty drawing a steady stream of travellers seeking a respite from busier centres. The distinctive character of Sunnyside is one of understated resilience, a place where hard work and a deep connection to the earth have shaped both the landscape and the enduring spirit of its people.

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