Map of Vancouver Island
$129.00 CAD
20x30 map professionally printed using archival-quality materials and processes.
Built for the people who know that Vancouver Island isn't one place, it's a hundred places stitched together by salt water and backroads:
- Colours that feel like West Coast rainforest meeting the slate-blue Pacific
- Labelled like a nautical chart: bays, channels, passages, not highways
- Every surf town, fishing port, and ferry terminal that matters
- Depth shading that shows the story below the surface
- The Gulf Islands, Barkley Sound, Johnstone Strait – all in one view
- Sized to spark 2AM conversations about where to go next
- Printed on archival paper with Giclée methods that outlasts a faded chart
Salt and stories collide on this island. From the calm of the Salish Sea to the wild Pacific swells off Tofino, this is the island that turns visitors into lifers. Hang it where you can see it everyday remind yourself why you should get back outside.

These maps are for anyone who likes the ocean: sailors, surfers, fisherman, paddlers, divers, coastal hikers; people who hike up that hill for a sunset over the water, and anyone who loves a good tidepool.
PSST...they also make a great gift :)
People who see the map can walk up to it and start asking questions and you start telling stories you forgot you had. You dream bigger. You plan BIGGER. You remember that being on the water matters to you so you do it more.
These maps are from an ocean perspective. The labels are similar to what's one a marine chart: bays, inlets, channels, seas. The towns are good stops for provisions or places to start an adventure. The colours feel like the place feels. It's from a mariners perspective. It's a map for waterpeople made by a waterperson.
An analogue, paper map is pure magic. It let's you see everything all at once. It lets you understand the big picture and easily switch to the details. And! Unlike a phone, everyone can look at the same thing at the same time, which makes for much better stories.
Nope. A nautical chart is a very specific, standardized, tool for safe navigation. A chart helps you keep your boat floating and lets you find your way at sea.These maps are not for navigation. They are for decoration, general trip planning , dreaming, and storytelling,

I ship to Canada and the United States. In the future, I will ship internationally, but if you are desperate for a map send me a message and I can do a custom order for you.
If you order from Canada, your map is printed and shipped in Canada. If you order from the US, your map is printed and shipped in the US. This means no surprise fees for anyone.
