Sargasso Sea Map
The Sargasso Sea is a sea. This map shows the Sargasso Sea highlighted in blue on shaded relief, with the surrounding coasts, rivers, borders and major cities.
How to read this map
The blue outline marks the Sargasso Sea as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include San Juan, Santo Domingo, Port-au-Prince, Santiago de los Caballeros, Virginia Beach, Richmond, Cap-Haïtien and Guantánamo. Labeled states and countries: Delaware.
Greens show lower elevations; tan and brown show higher land, with pale tones toward the highest terrain. Shadows emphasize the slopes, and vertical relief is exaggerated so landforms are easier to read. Dashed lines show country borders, and fine dashed lines show state or province borders.
The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the outline of the Sargasso Sea come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the outline is a guide to where the Sargasso Sea is, not a surveyed boundary.
Blank physical map
The blank version keeps the mapped features and removes the place labels. Download it for a geography worksheet or practice identifying the features.
