Shipbreaker Bay[1] is a body of water located off the south-eastern coast of Westeros. It is an inlet of the Narrow Sea, running along the eastern coast of the Stormlands, separating the mainland from the island of Tarth. The bay is noted for its severe, frequent storms. House Baratheon's ancestral castle, Storm's End, is located on the bay.
History[]
House of the Dragon: Season 1[]
Aemond Targaryen chases Lucerys Velaryon above Shipbreaker Bay on his dragon Vhagar. This results in Vhagar killing Lucerys, and the remains of his dragon Arrax drops into the bay below.[2]
Game of Thrones: Season 2[]
Renly and Stannis Baratheon undertake a fruitless parley on a cliff overlooking Shipbreaker Bay.[3]
Tyrion Lannister later receives intelligence that Stannis's fleet of 200 ships is headed north past Tarth, putting them in the northern part of the bay.[4]
In the books[]
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels Shipbreaker Bay is named for the hundreds, if not thousands, of ships that have been wrecked in storms along its shores. Most notably, the parents of Robert, Stannis and Renly Baratheon were killed in a shipwreck close to Storm's End twenty years before the events of the series.
As well as Storm's End, the castles of Griffin's Roost, Rain House, and Evenfall Hall are located along the coast of the bay.
