At a Glance

The Sword Coast, strictly speaking, is the saber-like western shore of northern Faerun, stretching from Candlekeep to Luskan.

In the looser, colloquial sense, the Sword Coast is an arbitrary region, defined here as everything south of the Delimbiyr and north of the Cloud Peaks, from the Sea of Swords itself east to Anauroch and the Sunset Mountains. This region is often called the Western Heartlands in official sources.

The folk of this area don’t necessarily consider themselves residents of the coast.  It’s just a convenient way to divide up the map.

Waterdeep and the High Forest, among other famous landmarks, are north of the Delimbiyr and are hence part of the Sword Coast North.
