How To Use The Noonsite Mapping Feature

Previous Page

News Intro

We are very excited to now have a mapping feature on Noonsite and frequent visitors to the site may have already noticed the small blue map icon on the right hand side of the screen. We hope it will make navigating the website easier than ever to quickly see ports, find out information and add comments and anchorages. Here we explain how to use the map.

Last Update - June 04, 2020

News Item Content

The new Noonsite mapping feature allows you to navigate the website easier than ever, quickly see port information and add comments plus post your own favorite anchorages.

To access the map click on the blue map icon on the right edge of your screen.

If you have your location settings enabled on your device or web browser the map will zoom to your current location, otherwise it defaults to a view of the Atlantic.

What does the map show?

With the map open, on the left edge of the map screen you will see a filter icon.

Clicking on the filter icon will open a menu where you can filter your view by your selected criteria. It also acts as a key that defines what the various icons on the map are.

The map currently shows:

  • Ports
  • Ports of Entry
  • C19 Transit/ open ports

The map also shows:

  • Marinas
  • Boatyards

Please bear in mind we are still updating the business listings to work with the map, so there are a number of marinas and boatyards that are not yet showing. 

Finding out information from the map:

The map makes it much easier to see at a glance the breadth of information we have on Noonsite and which ports in each country we hold details of anchorages, marinas, repair facilities, marine and shore services.

You can also quickly see the ports of entry at your next destination to help with planning.

Clicking on a pin for a port, marina or boatyard will open an information box at the bottom of which are two buttons. “View Comments” is where you can read comments left by other sailors and if you are logged in you can add your own comments as well.

Clicking the “View Page” button takes you to the port page where you can find all the information Noonsite has about that port including related news and reports. If clicking this on a marina or boatyard icon, it will take you to the business listing.

To get to the map from a port page simply click the “View on map” button and the map will open and zoom into your selected port.

Adding my favorite anchorages:

You can add your favorite anchorages by clicking on the map to place the red pin and then clicking on the red pin to post details in the pop-up box. You do need to be logged in to use this feature.

When posting anchorages please try and include as much useful detail as possible (approach notes, shelter, nature of the bottom, dinghy docks, services ashore, recommendations etc.).

You can also see and leave comments on anchorages posted by other Noonsite members.

Remember:

  • You must be logged-in to post an anchorage and comments.
  • We are still updating the location information for some marinas and boatyards. You will therefore notice that some areas have these marine businesses missing on the map, however they are on the site. For the time being, clicking on the nearest port and viewing the port page will show you marinas and boatyards in the area.
  • Please share your feedback on using the map as we continue to add information and fine tune the features available.

      Hi Karl, Please see the latest information from the Costa Rica Tourist Board, who indicate that from September 1 private yachts will be allowed to enter the country. See https://www.noonsite.com/place/costa-rica/formalities/#biosecurity-section

    Would like to see more icons than just anchorages. Something for boat yards, fuel docks etc.

    The PIN location for Stuart (St Lucie River) is on the wrong coast of Florida. It is actually on the East coast north of West Palm Beach.

    The current Pin on the map is actually on the Caloosahatchee River at Ft Myers, Florida. There are numerous marinas and chandlers along the river.

      Hi David, thanks for using the "add an anchorage" function. I am afraid users can't delete anchorages, I'll have to do it. Please let me know which one you want removed. You can email me at [email protected]
      Thanks.

      Hi Richard, right hand side of screen - little blue icon in a square (of a marker on a map). Just click on that and it will take you to the map.
