OpenStreetMaps has excellent maps, and there are many apps that use it. Unfortunately their search is usually not that good.
I use Organic Maps, and also have OsmAnd. Great maps, poor search. I'd love to know if there's an app with better search.

How the map providers deal with this tag is up to them. There's actually a huge discussion how to deal with this. It's... complicated: https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/gulf-of-america-gulf-of-mexico/124571/196 https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/gulf-of-america-gulf-o...
