South China Sea

East of Vietnam, the open South China Sea extends towards Macclesfield Bank to the northeast. This submerged bank has shallower water around its edges. An East India Company ship named Macclesfield recorded the shoals in 1701 while returning from China. Across the basin, monsoon winds reverse between summer and winter, shaping voyages far from the mainland coast.
