North America and Atlantic Ocean NGA charts are official maritime maps historically produced by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency to document coastlines, shipping routes, and ports across the North American continent and Atlantic Ocean. These charts provide detailed hydrographic information including depth soundings, harbor layouts, and navigational aids. While they are no longer updated for modern navigation, they remain valuable for reference, educational use, and decorative display.
Our NGA chart collection includes maps covering the entire eastern seaboard of the United States, Canadian Atlantic provinces, the Gulf of Mexico, and major Caribbean islands. Offshore charts detail transatlantic shipping routes and deepwater fishing grounds. These charts are ideal for collectors, maritime educators, and as authentic wall décor in homes or offices.
