Caribbean Islands Map - New Vintage Style with Modern Geography

Important: select the 'Map Finish', to see the available sizes in the next dropdown selection.

This map includes a special Certificate with a summary about the map.  

Our beautiful Caribbean Sea Map was created using both antique (old world) cartography methods and modern geography and scientific data! We used massive datasets that measured the depth of the seafloor and land elevations to create the map. In this map you can explore the pattern of the seafloor - noting the deepest depths, the oceanic current patterns, and island formation in the Caribbean.  

The cartographic design includes rhumb lines that illustrate directions and distances in the map. Rhumb lines add a geometric design element that provides an organized grid layout that assisted navigators in their sailing. The map includes a very special compass that was inspired by a design back in 1450s when elaborate colors and concentric designs highlighted the beauty and workmanship of the map. Sea monster and nautical designs are also featured throughout the map. This type of cartographic elements dates back to circa 1550s - 1750s during the height of exploring the mysteries of the ocean seas.

The red border that surrounds the map is a special cartographic design that was also inspired by cartographic artistry. The jeweled-red border was intricately hand-drawn and was inspired by the art of cartography of the 1550s - 1700s.  

Production and Shipping Times:   In the continental USA, the map should be delivered within 7 to 14 days.
