How does one cache map data to enable GPS navigation without network access? I would like to cache maps before visiting an island.

If you can consider using an alternative, HereWeGo maps app provide full offline capabilities. It can download maps data on a per country basis and allows you to navigate solely using device GPS.– Nimesh Neema ♦Jan 13, 2019 at 5:33

Google maps also provides full offline capabilities now.– anonymousagaAug 20, 2021 at 12:27

iOS and macOS cache maps as you browse, so the first step is to visit all the places at the scales you wish so your system has a chance to cache the content.
I’m not aware of a way to force or pin these, so you might need a dedicated map if you have to be sure you have a complete offline map data.
