Is it possible to disable moving inside the google map?

Even though there is an accepted answer, just providing my answer as it didnt help me. mapView.setClickable(false) does not work all the time, like cases where you have a mapView inside a scrollView. So I created a view object right above the mapView of the same size.

Handled the onTouchListener for my overlay view and passed all the touch events to the parent of mapView (ScrollView in my case), hence by-passing all the touch events from mapView to scrollview.

One more way to achieve is by doing

mMap.getUiSettings().setAllGesturesEnabled(false);
