Pacific Ocean Floor Wall Map by National Geographic

Pacific Ocean Floor — National Geographic Wall Map (2007)

The blue world from below: ridges, vents, trenches, and teeming deep-sea life revealed in sculpted relief. This Pacific Ocean Floor wall map renders the basin’s hidden architecture—mid-ocean ridges, fracture zones, seamount chains, and abyssal plains—while pinpointing icons such as the Mariana Trench (Earth’s deepest point) and the Aleutian Trench. Hundreds of islands are labelled with their sovereignty, tying surface nations to their submarine foundations. Made to command a wall and reward close study.

More Than a Map – A Testament to a Living Seafloor

This isn’t just wall art—it’s a frame for understanding the engine room of the Pacific: plate boundaries, hydrothermal vent fields, and the rugged terrain that shapes currents, climate, and biology. Clean symbology and carefully tuned color bring depth contours and features into crisp focus. Ideal for educators, divers, sailors, oceanographers, designers, and collectors, it pairs beautifully with National Geographic’s surface Pacific Ocean map for a two-layer ocean display.

Hang it in studios, libraries, classrooms, museums, offices, or at home to invite reflection, study, and conversation.
