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 Deans Marsh, Victoria, 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.

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 Deans Marsh.
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.

Deans Marsh rests in a gentle fold of the land, a place where the rolling hills of the Surf Coast Shire begin to hint at the wilder country beyond. It lies 49.7 km south-west of Geelong, VIC (from Geelong, VIC: bearing 235°T), and is situated 13.1 km north of Lorne. The air here carries a clean, earthy scent, a blend of damp soil and the subtle perfume of gum leaves, particularly potent after a soft rain. Sunlight, when it breaks through the often-overcast skies, casts a pale, luminous glow on the patchwork of paddocks, each delineated by weathered fence lines that seem to stitch the landscape together. Distant stands of eucalyptus, their silvery-green foliage a cool counterpoint to the warmer tones of the pasture, stand sentinel on the horizon, their branches reaching towards a sky that can shift from steely grey to a startling, vivid blue within minutes. The terrain itself is a study in subtle contours, with shallow valleys cradling occasional creeks and larger, more open expanses where the land breathes easy.
The history of Deans Marsh is intrinsically tied to the fertile soil that has sustained generations of farmers and graziers. For many years, the primary pulse of the locality was the rhythm of agriculture, with dairy herds and sheep dotting the verdant slopes, their contented lowing and bleating a familiar sound in the quiet mornings. While many of these traditional pursuits continue, the character of Deans Marsh has broadened, embracing a more diverse economy that now includes small-scale viticulture, with a few dedicated growers coaxing fine cool-climate wines from the earth. The nearby coast, a mere stone's throw by road, also exerts a subtle influence, drawing visitors who seek a quieter, more pastoral counterpoint to the bustling beaches. This blend of agricultural heritage and a burgeoning artisanal spirit gives Deans Marsh a distinctive, unhurried charm, a place where the past is not forgotten but continues to shape the present.

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 Deans Marsh is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
