Learn More
Founded by sailors who wanted to share their experiences with the world, Bluemapia is a web-based open cruising guide and mobile platform, to do just that. Through Placemarks and Points of Interest, users are able to discover more about specific geographic areas, or upload their own photos, videos and text to the public map.
Share your Trips
Every Placemark or Point of Interest within Bluemapia, can be embedded into 3rd party websites, allowing you to easily share interesting geographic media outside of Bluemapia. If you have added a number of Placemarks into a ‘trip’ (for example, a group of Placemarks from a sailing holiday), you can also embed the trip as a complete group of all your Placemarks for that particular trip - This is a great way to show friends and family your photos and other media, in the exact geographic context in which they were taken.

Go Mobile
Through the
Bluemapia Mobile and
Bluemapia for iPhone applications, sailors can also send pictures and location information straight from the cockpit of their boats, or even view localised photos and information contributed by fellow users.
It’s your content (really!)
Through Creative Commons licensing, everything you upload to Bluemapia is yours - We simply provide the platform, and hope it inspires you and your friends to keep sailing, to share your adventures with the world!
