Caribbean

£5.99

Large general map providing an overview of the whole Caribbean region.

Both geographical names of various island groups (Leeward, Windward, etc.), and political names and boundaries of the countries and dependencies are shown, with, where appropriate, associations to UK, France, etc. Bathymetric tints with depths values provide information on the surrounding seas, again with names of geographical features such as ridges, basins, straights and passages, etc. Main coral reefs are also marked. Bermuda is included as an inset.

At this scale many islands are, of course, too tiny to provide much information beyond the most essential place names. On the larger islands and the surrounding mainland more information is given, with relief shading to show the topography, road and rail networks, etc. Time zone boundaries are indicated across the whole region. Latitude & longitude lines are drawn at 1° intervals, and the multilingual legend includes English.
