The map
About this Gustavia map poster
Gustavia wraps around a small, deep harbour on the western side of Saint Barthélemy. From above, the water forms a neat horseshoe, with quays lining its inner edge and a compact grid of short streets filling the flat land around it. Steep headlands rise on both sides of the harbour mouth. Beyond them, roads wind over the hills to the rest of the island.
The town is named after King Gustav III of Sweden. France ceded the island to Sweden in 1784, and it remained Swedish until 1878, when it returned to France. Traces of that period remain: some street signs give names in both French and Swedish, and the town keeps a few buildings from the Swedish era. Today the harbour is known for yachts moored stern-to along the quay.
A Gustavia map poster fits a whole town into a small, balanced frame. The harbour provides the central shape, the quayside streets outline it, and the headlands close it off. Short roads lead up to the hills and neighbouring bays. The result is compact and neat, much like the place itself.

Swedish-era streets
A small grid of short streets around the harbour, some still signed in both French and Swedish. It is a quiet reminder of nearly a century of Swedish rule.
Headlands
Steep points of land rise on both sides of the harbour entrance. On the poster they frame the town and show how little flat ground it has.

Why Gustavia
A map that means something
Gustavia is a place of sailing trips, long summer holidays and special occasions. A map of its harbour is an understated, elegant way to recall time on Saint Barthélemy, one that looks at home in a coastal house or a city apartment.
The title, subtitle and coordinates line can be personalised, for example with a boat name or a wedding date. Choose from five styles: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand. Paper and Sand give the harbour a soft, sunlit feel.
