These maps are dedicated to promoting
the Virgin Islands’ fabulous underwater
scenery, and will inspire the viewer to
love the reef creatures that inhabit the
waters around these beloved islands. The
colors of my map say, “The U.S. Virgin
Islands are stunning and wonderful!”; and
“I love the U.S. Virgin Islands!” This
chain of islands and islets look like
emerald jewels spread out across the
gorgeous, deepening shades of ocean
turquoise. The map also includes a
miniature globe map for a perspective of
just where in the world the Virgin Islands
are, as they sit far out on the edge of the
Continental Shelf where the warm
Caribbean meets the vast Atlantic Ocean.
Meanwhile, there is always room for
improvement, and inputs are welcome and
often very helpful.
CARD
The Virgin Islands have so much fabulous
underwater scenery and so much sea life
that this Franko's fish card just had to be
created. Franko's Virgin Islands Reef
Creatures Guide depicts 100 plus
Caribbean reef creatures found commonly
in Virgin Island waters. Although one
could never really depict the beauty of
tropical reef creatures or their
environment, this is an amazingly colorful
rendition of a huge number of species of
the most commonly found reef creatures
of the Virgin Islands. Nature supplied the
beauty, Franko just tried to show it in a
form so that the scuba diver or snorkeler
could identify the creatures first hand.
Fabulous angelfishes, parrot fishes,
damsels, wrasses, groupers, snappers,
rays, and chromis are but a few of the
types of fish shown. There are also a
number of colorful corals and sponges,
plus a team of invertebrates awaiting your
discovery. This fish card will have you
dreaming of your next (or first) trip to the
Virgin Islands for sure. Say Good Day to
everybody for Franko when you are there.
The fish card measure (H x L) 4" x 6"
(10.2cm x 15.24cm), is printed on
laminated plastic so that it is stiff, shiny
and waterproof. It has a hole for a lanyard,
so you can actually take it diving or
snorkeling. Card makes a great gift idea.
