====Official blazon====
===Official blazon===
Azure, on a fess abased or, rising from this a palm tree of the same between two crosses patée argent, four bars wavy of the last.


===Origin/meaning===
The palmtree in gold bespeaks the territory of the archdiocese, where these trees grow plentifully and luxuriously, so much that is is practically a symbol of this area.


====Origin/meaning====
Blue field = the sky. The trees issue from a golden bars (beach?) between two silver crosses as emblems for Catholic Faith. The wvay bars in base signify that the diocese is encompassed by water.
I have no information on the origin or meaning of these arms. Any information is welcome !
