Salt pans
Around the estuary, evaporation ponds divide the flat land into large rectangles and strips, one of the most graphic patterns you can find on any coastal map.

The map
About this Areia Branca map poster
Areia Branca lies on the northern coast of Rio Grande do Norte, where the Apodi-Mossoró river reaches the Atlantic. The name means white sand, and the landscape around it matches: pale dunes, beaches and wide, flat land along the estuary. On a map, the town is a compact grid of streets by the water, surrounded by large geometric shapes of salt pans.
Salt is what defines the area. This stretch of coast is one of Brazil's main salt producing regions, and the evaporation ponds form grids of rectangles that cover huge areas around the river mouth. Offshore lies a man-made island terminal built to load salt onto ships, since the shallow coast makes a conventional port difficult.
An Areia Branca map poster brings together the fine street grid, the branching estuary, the long shoreline and the patterned salt fields. It is an unusual map, part town, part industrial landscape, and in black and white the salt pans look almost like an abstract drawing.

River mouth
The Apodi-Mossoró river widens into an estuary as it reaches the sea, with channels and low islands shaping the town's western side.
Atlantic shoreline
Beaches and dunes stretch along the coast, a clean horizontal edge between the street grid and the open ocean.

Why Areia Branca
A map that means something
Areia Branca means something to people who grew up among the dunes and salt works, or who spent holidays on its beaches. The mix of sea, estuary and salt pans makes a map that is both personal and unusually striking.
