Mistake in Game of Thrones S03E10? - Woman in White Fur Coat

In S03E10, when ser Davos frees Gendry at Dragonstone, the directions he gives him seem to not correspond with the map:

  • Row for a full day and night and you'll reach Rook's Rest. You'll want to stop there. Don't. She'll find you.

  • Where should I go?

  • You must keep the coast on your left side until you reach King's Landing.

But this doesn't quite correspond with the map:

From this it seems like the shore should be on the right side. So is it a mistake or did I get it wrong somewhere?



Best Answer

If Gendry rows towards King's Landing back-first, then the coast is indeed to his left.
