About this Salawati Island map poster
Salawati lies in the Raja Ampat archipelago off the western tip of New Guinea, in Indonesia's province of Southwest Papua. It is one of the four main islands of Raja Ampat, and it sits unusually close to the mainland: only the narrow Sele Strait separates its eastern shore from the Bird's Head Peninsula near Sorong.
From above Salawati is broad and fairly low, with forest, swamp and rivers covering much of the land and a coastline lined with mangroves and small bays. Settlements are scattered, mostly near the coast, and linked by a small number of roads. The island has also been a site of oil and gas production for decades.
A Salawati Island map poster shows the island's quiet complexity: the long, winding strait along one side, the scalloped coast on the others and a sparse network of roads and rivers inside. The nearby coast of New Guinea often appears at the edge, a reminder of how close the island lies to the mainland.

Mangrove coast
Much of the shoreline is edged by mangroves and small inlets, giving the outline a soft, irregular texture that contrasts with the open sea beyond.
Rivers and forest
Rivers wind through the forested and swampy interior, drawn as fine lines that meander toward the coast across the broad, low land.

Why Salawati Island
A map that means something
Salawati appeals to people from the Papuan provinces, to those who have worked in the region and to divers and travellers who know Raja Ampat. Its closeness to the mainland gives the map an unusual composition, part island and part coastline.
Personalise the title and subtitle, add a date or the coordinates line, and choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Blueprint suits the intricate waterways, while Sand gives the island a warm, natural feel.
