The island
Rodrigues is an autonomous outer island of the Republic of Mauritius, lying several hundred kilometres east of the main island in the Indian Ocean. It is small and hilly, with a central ridge and slopes that run down to the sea on every side. Its capital, Port Mathurin, is a quiet town on the northern coast, where the harbour and most administrative life are found.
The most striking feature of Rodrigues from above is its lagoon. A broad ring of shallow water, enclosed by a coral reef, surrounds the island and is larger than the island itself. Small islets sit within it, and the reef line forms a second, wider outline around the coast.
A Rodrigues map poster shows this doubled shape: the land in the middle and the reef-edged lagoon around it. The island is also known for the Rodrigues solitaire, a flightless bird related to the dodo that became extinct centuries ago. Today the François Leguat reserve, named after an early settler who described the bird, is home to giant tortoises.

The small capital sits on the northern coast. Its short grid of streets is the main concentration of buildings on the island.
Hills rise along the middle of the island, with roads winding along and across them to connect small villages spread over the slopes.

Why Rodrigues
Rodrigues is a place people seldom arrive at by chance, so a map of it usually marks something personal: a long journey, family ties to the island, or time spent diving and walking there. The lagoon ring makes it one of the most graphic island shapes.
Change the title, subtitle and coordinates line to suit your story, and choose from Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand. Blueprint gives the lagoon and reef a crisp, nautical look.
