Its really not well defined. Its an area where the ocanic currents collect all sorts of floating objects, but mostly the Saragassum weed, which gives the area its name. The are moves with the movements of the currents, sometimes Bermuda is right in the middle of it and sometime Bermuda is on the Northern edge of it. On some of the old charts its also called the "doldrums."
