Garmin Standard Mapping® - Texas West Classic microSD™/SD™ Card

Navigate the intricate bays, channels, and open waters of Texas West with confidence using this specialized Garmin mapping card. Designed for boaters who demand precision, it overlays stunning high-resolution aerial views directly onto your chartplotter's display, revealing hidden details like narrow inlets, oyster beds, and coastal landmarks that standard basemaps often miss. Whether you're chasing redfish in the Laguna Madre or plotting a course along the Padre Island National Seashore, this card transforms your on-water experience into something truly intuitive and reliable.

Unmatched Detail for Texas Coastal Adventures

Covering the essential Texas West region—from the bustling ports near Corpus Christi to the remote stretches down to the Rio Grande Valley—this mapping solution delivers sectioned coastal aerial overlays. You'll spot every twist in the waterways, from shallow flats perfect for wade fishing to deeper channels ideal for larger vessels. Local names for bays, cuts, and points make it easier to communicate with fellow anglers or follow time-tested fishing reports, cutting down on guesswork during those early morning runs.

Standout Features That Elevate Your Boating

• High-Resolution Aerial Imagery: Completely replaces the generic basemap, giving you bird's-eye clarity on waterways and land features. Zoom in to identify docks, ramps, and hazards with ease.
• High-Definition Offshore Mapping: High-contrast elevation shading highlights underwater contours and drop-offs, helping you avoid shallows or target structure-rich areas offshore.
• Localized Naming: Every inlet, bayou, and headland is labeled with names locals use, bridging the gap between charts and real-world navigation.
• Seamless Regional Coverage: Tailored specifically for Texas West, ensuring comprehensive detail without overwhelming your device.

Effortless Integration with Your Gear

Simply slide the card into your compatible chartplotter's microSD or SD slot, and the enhanced mapping loads instantly—no complex setup required. It's optimized for Garmin marine displays, ensuring smooth performance even in rough seas. This plug-and-play design means more time on the water and less fiddling with tech.

Real-World Benefits for Serious Boaters

Imagine threading through the jetties at Port Aransas during outgoing tides or anchoring in a protected cove near South Padre Island. This card's vivid imagery and shading help you read the bottom like a pro, spot fish-holding structure, and plan safer routes. It's a game-changer for weekend warriors and charter captains alike, providing the edge needed in competitive fishing tournaments or family outings where safety comes first. Backed by Garmin's commitment to quality, it includes a limited one-year consumer warranty for peace of mind.
