Christmas Island
Santa, his reindeer, a pine forest, and Santa's workshop on an island that doesn't exist - drawn onto the real Google Map and shareable with one link.
What's on the map
Christmas Island is a festive map made entirely in Maptide. The island itself - its beaches, hills, and snowy center - is drawn as custom shapes over open sea, then decorated with Santa, three reindeer, eight pine trees, Santa's workshop, and a log cabin from the Maptide icon library. The whole thing was exported to Google My Maps, so it opens as a normal, shareable Google Maps link.
