The long pier
The deep-water wharf stretches several kilometres into the Gulf of Mexico, a thin straight line that dominates the composition and makes Progreso instantly recognisable from above.

The map
Progreso sits on the flat northern edge of the Yucatán Peninsula, the nearest port to Mérida, which lies roughly 35 kilometres inland. On a map the town is a neat grid pressed against a long, almost perfectly straight shoreline on the Gulf of Mexico. Behind it, low wetlands and coastal lagoons spread in soft, irregular shapes, so the town reads as a thin strip between water on both sides.
The most striking line on the map is the pier. The port's deep-water wharf runs several kilometres straight out into the shallow Gulf, because the seabed here slopes so gently that ships cannot come close to shore. Drawn in black ink, it becomes a single thread stretching off the edge of the town, far longer than any street in the grid behind it.
A Progreso map poster captures that contrast between the orderly blocks, the beachfront promenade and the open water beyond. The coast road runs east and west along the sand towards smaller beach settlements, and the highway to Mérida leaves the grid heading south across the marshes. It is a simple, legible composition, well suited to minimalist black-and-white printing.
The deep-water wharf stretches several kilometres into the Gulf of Mexico, a thin straight line that dominates the composition and makes Progreso instantly recognisable from above.
Numbered streets form a regular grid of blocks that ends abruptly at the beach, with the waterfront promenade tracing the shoreline along the northern edge.
South of the streets, coastal wetlands and lagoons break up the land into loose, organic shapes, separating the port from the rest of the peninsula.

Why Progreso
Progreso is where many families from Mérida spend their summers and where cruise passengers first step onto Yucatán. A map of the town keeps the memory of the sea breeze, the promenade and that endless pier, whether you grew up nearby or visited once.
You can personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates line, for example with a family name or the year of a trip, and choose between Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand to suit the room.
