Garmin BlueChart® g2 HD - HAW005R - The Gulf & Red Sea - microSD™/SD™ — Product description
Explore the Gulf and Red Sea with Precision Navigation
Navigating the intricate waters of the Arabian Peninsula demands charts that capture every nuance of the coastline, from bustling ports to remote anchorages. This Garmin BlueChart g2 HD edition delivers high-definition mapping for the Gulf and Red Sea regions, spanning from the Mediterranean approaches near Beirut and Alexandria, through the Suez Canal, down the full length of the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, to the Strait of Hormuz, Gulf of Oman, and Somali coast. Key areas include detailed coverage of Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Bahrain, Iran, Yemen, Oman, and Pakistan's northern shores, with zoomed-in views of critical spots like Al-Fuhaihil, Ad-Dammam, Ad-Dauha, Abu Dhabi, Jiddah, Djibouti, and Aden.
Whether you're chartering a yacht from Dubai to Muscat, planning a dive trip in the Red Sea, or fishing off Qatar's southern coast, these charts blend official hydrographic data with private surveys for unparalleled accuracy. Spot soundings, depth contours, tides, currents, and harbor layouts ensure you dock with confidence, even in low visibility or unfamiliar bays.

Maximize Your Charts: Pro Tips for Gulf Voyages
Insert the card into your Garmin device and auto-load the region—calibrate shading to local tides for optimal views. Use contours during ebb flows in the Gulf, where depths plummet fast. For Red Sea crossings, cross-reference currents with shaded ranges to conserve fuel. Regular firmware syncs ensure peak performance, and always cross-check with VHF weather for sandbar shifts.
