Are you searching for beach artwork in New Zealand that captures the magic of the coast in a fresh, meaningful way? At Tides Out Maps, we turn New Zealand’s ocean depths, coastlines, and iconic waterways into handcrafted, three-dimensional wooden artworks that are as beautiful as they are conversation-starting.
Whether you’re decorating a bach, gifting something special to a sea lover, or celebrating your favourite coastal spot—our 3D nautical maps bring the feeling of the beach home in a way nothing else can.
Why Choose Tides Out Maps for Your Beach Artwork?
🌊 Crafted from the Depths
Unlike traditional prints or paintings, our artwork is created using bathymetric data—the underwater equivalent of topography. Every map showcases the contours of the ocean floor, islands, inlets, and beaches in rich layers, adding depth, dimension, and a sense of place to your space.
🖐️ Handmade in New Zealand
Each piece is handcrafted here in Aotearoa, using sustainably sourced materials and precision laser-cutting techniques. From the Banks Peninsula to the Bay of Islands, we map the places that matter—right down to the last ripple.
🏖️ Customise Your Favourite Beach
Want to commemorate a specific beach—the one you grew up on, got engaged at, or always holiday by? We offer bespoke designs so you can choose your location and size, and we’ll bring it to life as a one-of-a-kind artwork that tells your story.
