SOMALIA, a country located in Eastern Africa's Horn of Africa, has a rugged northern coast located south of the Gulf of Aden and north of the nearby, east-west oriented Ogo Mountains. Meanwhile, Somalia's eastern coast that is west of the Indian Ocean is more smooth. However, a small peninsula along the eastern coast interrupts this smoothness. The peninsula is named Raas Xaafuun and has a multiple of spellings, including Hafun and Ras Hafun. With the exception of this map I created and possibly a few others, there are not many individual maps in the world which focus on this peninsula. Towns located on the peninsula include Xaafuun and Kurduuf.
