Barter Beach

Barter Beach is a major pirate den in the Basilisk Isles, off the north coast of Sothoryos.

In the novels
Barter Beach is specifically stated to be located on Talon island. All other pirate towns in the Basilisk Isles are by transient and mobile: for example, Port Plunder gets destroyed once every generation by fleets from the Free Cities on anti-pirate campaigns, but within a year a new settlement will be built and named "Port Plunder" to replace it - often not even on the same island in the chain. From its description, however, Barter Beach is literally a shoreline on Talon island. It is possible this means that it is not so much a town or settlement as a large beach with good anchorage where pirate ships can be brought aground to unload their wares and trade.
