The map below depicts the Gulf of Maine, a semi protected body of water bounded by Cape Cod and Georges Bank to the south and New Brunswick and Nova Scotia to the north. The Northeast Channel opens the Gulf to the currents of the open Atlantic. Light blue areas represent the shallow coastal waters and banks (above 100m in depth) while middle and dark blues represent the waters below 100m and 200m respectively. The waters off the Continental Slope are much deeper still.
