The large wine-producing island known as the Arbor is located near Oldtown, separated from the mainland of the Reach and sitting in the Summer Sea. Oldtown, the second largest city in the Seven Kingdoms, is thus located on the Summer Sea, being situated in the southwest corner of the Reach (and therefore, the southwest corner of Westeros as a whole). In Westeros, the southern coasts of Dorne and the Reach are on the Summer Sea. Tyrosh is located at the east end of the Stepstones, where the Summer Sea transitions into the Narrow Sea. Several of the southern Free Cities are major ports located on the Summer Sea: Volantis is locate at the mouth of the Rhoyne River on the southern coast, and Lys is actually located on a group of off-shore islands surrounded by the warm waves of the Summer Sea. There are no major islands in the Summer Sea located west of the Summer Isles (and thus no major islands or landmasses south of Westeros itself). The northernmost of the Summer Islands is directly south from the Narrow Sea, but the archipelago curves to the southeast, so the southernmost isle is much farther away from Westeros. The large archipelago is home to several port cities. The Summer Islanders are a thriving civilization of sea-farers, whose merchant vessels can be found throughout the Summer Sea. The Summer Islands are located in the Summer Sea, west from the coast of Sothoryos and far to the southeast of Westeros. Naath is directly south from Valyria, and located between Sothoryos to the east and the Summer Isles to the west. West of mainland Sothoryos is Naath island, whose peaceful inhabitants are the targets of frequent slaver raids from Essos. Immediately north of Sothoryos are the Basilisk Isles, brutal pirate dens and slaver bases which are even worse than the Stepstones. Three major settled regions, however, have developed on the different island groups in the Summer Sea off the coast of Sothoryos. Little of mainland Sothoryos has been explored (only some of the northern shores), and the coasts rarely remain settled for long due to dangerous animals and diseases in the wilds of the local jungles. Slaver's Bay and the Gulf of Grief are large inlets of the Summer Sea, and the Valyrian peninsula extends out into it. It is separated from the Narrow Sea by the islands known as the Stepstones, and from the Jade Sea by the Straits of Qarth. It is located to the south of both Westeros and Essos, separating those continents from the southern landmass of Sothoryos. The Summer Sea is one of the major oceans of the known world.
