Sword Coast

The Sword Coast, not to be confused with the Sword Coast North, stretches along the Sea of Swords from Waterdeep south to the river Chionthar at Baldur's Gate in the south. The Sword Coast gets its name from the white cliffs that rise up sharply for hundreds of miles of the coastline, from Baldur's Gate to the south and up to the River Dessarin in the north.

Officially, the coast line north of Waterdeep up to Icewind Dale is not part of the Sword Coast, though most folk simply use the term Sword Coast for this otherwise unnamed strech of coast line.
