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 Nanga Brook, Western 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 Nanga Brook.
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.

Nanga Brook rests in a gentle embrace of rolling hills, a landscape painted in broad strokes of ochre and olive under a sky that often burns a startling cerulean. It lies 49.8 km south-east of Mandurah, WA (from Mandurah, WA: bearing 137°T), and is situated 12.8 km south of Dwellingup. The air here carries the dry, fragrant breath of native bushland, a subtle perfume of eucalyptus and hardy wattles that mingles with the richer, damp earth scent after a rain. Sunlight, particularly in the late afternoon, casts long, languid shadows that stretch and distort the contours of the land, giving the impression of a place both ancient and perpetually in motion. The character of Nanga Brook is one of quiet resilience, a place where the land dictates the pace and the inhabitants move with a measured, almost understated, grace.
The history of Nanga Brook is deeply entwined with the agricultural aspirations that have shaped much of this region, a legacy evident in the scattered paddocks and the enduring presence of grazing livestock. Early settlers, drawn by the promise of fertile soil and the availability of timber, carved out a life from the bush, their efforts etched into the very shape of the landscape. While the broader Shire of Waroona has seen its fortunes ebb and flow with the cycles of farming and more recent resource exploration, Nanga Brook itself retains a character that speaks of a more pastoral existence. The local economy, though small, is a quiet testament to the enduring connection between people and the land, a place where the seasons still hold a significant sway over daily life and the small, distinctive pleasures of rural existence are keenly felt.

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 Nanga Brook is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
