Garmin BlueChart g3 Vision VEU455S Electronic Chart, Alicante to Cabo de Sao Vicente, Auto Guidance, Depth Range Shading

Overview

The Garmin BlueChart g3 Vision HD VEU455S is an electronic chart that loads onto compatible Garmin chartplotters and covers the Spain coast from Denia to Cabo de Sao Vicente, plus the North Africa coast from Mostaganem (Algeria) to Larache (Morocco).

This chart layer focuses on practical navigation detail for cruising and fishing, including depth range shading for up to 10 depth ranges, 1-foot contours where available, and shallow water shading you can set to your own depth limit. Auto Guidance can calculate a suggested route based on your selected depth and overhead clearance.

Key features

• VEU455S coverage for Spain (Denia to Cabo de Sao Vicente) plus North Africa (Mostaganem to Larache)
• Depth range shading for up to 10 depth ranges to help you spot your target depth quickly
• 1-foot contours in supported areas for clearer bottom definition
• Shallow water shading with a user-defined depth threshold
• Auto Guidance route suggestions based on your selected depth and overhead clearance
• Available as a preloaded microSD/SD card or as a download you install to a card

Variants

This chart is offered in multiple formats for different ways of loading it onto a chartplotter.

The chart coverage is the same VEU455S region; the difference is whether you receive a pre-programmed card or install the chart to a microSD/SD card using Garmin Express.

• 010-C0799-00 (Format SD Card). This version comes on a pre-programmed microSD/SD card that you insert into the chartplotter’s card slot.
• 010-D0469-00 (Format Download). This version is installed to a microSD/SD card using Garmin Express, then that card is used in the chartplotter.

Coverage

On the Spanish side, coverage runs from Denia down past key stretches such as Cabo de Palos, the Gulfs of Mazarron and Almeria, the Malaga area, Algeciras Bay, the Strait of Gibraltar, Cadiz, and onward toward the Algarve side of Portugal up to Cabo de Sao Vicente.

On the African side, coverage includes coastline from Mostaganem, Algeria west to Larache, Morocco.

Installation and setup

For the card format, insert the microSD/SD card into the chartplotter’s card slot and keep it in place while using the chart. For the download format, you will install the chart to a microSD/SD card using Garmin Express and then insert that card into the chartplotter.

If you already keep a chart card in the plotter full-time, plan where this card will live, or keep a dedicated card for this region so it is ready for quick departures.

Compatibility and fit

This chart is intended for compatible Garmin chartplotters that support BlueChart g3 Vision and have a microSD/SD card slot. Before buying, confirm your specific model supports this chart type and that you have an open card slot available.

If you are using the download format, you will also need access to Garmin Express and a microSD/SD card to write the chart data.

Use on board

This is a good match for skippers planning coastal hops along Spain’s Mediterranean and Atlantic shores, transiting the Strait of Gibraltar, or running between southern Spain, Portugal’s south coast, and nearby North Africa with one consistent chart region on the plotter.

As with any electronic charting, treat route suggestions as guidance and keep normal watchstanding practices in place, especially in shoaling areas, near harbors, and when conditions reduce visibility.
