Best Answer

The setting of the book Moby Dick is Manhattan to New Bedford then Nantucket in Massachusetts. After setting sail from Nantucket, the Pequod travels across the atlantic, around the Cape of Good Hope, across the Indian ocean, and through the Southeast Asian Islands until it reaches the Pacific, where the novel ends. After setting sail, the ship never touches land, although Ishmael does describe some of his experiences off the baot.
