Whirling Gulf

The Whirling Gulf is a location in east-northeastern Peraith, just south of the Nebligo Range and making up the transition between the northern highlands and the central shelf. It is formed by a powerful current of warm ocean water impacting the soft stone of the central shelf, eddying and turning as it cools. Hence, the coastline of the gulf is jagged and riddled with cliffs that all seem to bend in the same direction, and the waters are far too treacherous to sail. However, the warmth and high humidity make it one of the more lushly vegetated regions of northern Peraith, with large stands of old-growth deciduous trees.
