Variants

The tier (Garmin Navionics+ or Garmin Navionics Vision+) changes the available on-screen layers, while the format determines whether you receive a physical card or download the chart through a computer.

Coverage area

This region focuses on coastal navigation across the Indian Subcontinent arc from Pakistan through India and across to Myanmar, with coverage that includes Sri Lanka and key island groups in the area such as the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, the Maldives, and the Chagos Archipelago.

If your trips include coastal passages, harbor approaches, and nearshore fishing in this part of the world, this region keeps the local chart detail in one place so you are not stitching together multiple smaller areas.

Activation and updates

The included subscription period supports daily updates through the ActiveCaptain app. Charts and features you download during the subscription term remain available on the card or device, but you cannot download additional content after the subscription period ends unless it is renewed.

Compatibility and setup

Confirm that your chartplotter supports Garmin Navionics+ and Garmin Navionics Vision+ cartography before ordering. For the card versions, installation is typically as simple as inserting the microSD/SD into the chart card slot. For the download versions, plan on using Garmin Express on a computer to handle the delivery.

Use on board

This region is a good match for cruising boats, sportfishing setups, and charter operations that spend time along the Indian Subcontinent coastline and nearby island chains. It is also useful for skippers who want the added visual layers available in Vision+ when running unfamiliar harbor entrances and coastal approaches.
