I think the Caribbean is about 1,000 miles wide, and on a world map, it doesn't stick out that far into the Atlantic. Based on that, I think you could make the Shackles 1,000 miles wide and still have some open ocean between them and the remnants of Azlant. Or you could say that Azlant was closer to Garund than Arcadia, and have the Azlanti Islands just beyond the Cannibal Islands.

I offer up the map that I made for my Skull & Shackles/Razor Coast/Freeport campaign that I am currently running HERE.
It is based off the "Not-to-Scale" World Map, but gives alternate areas and sections of Azlant based on that original map. You don't have to use Razor Coast with it, of course. Just change the names to whatever suits you or cut off the other side of Azlant.
Hope this is somewhat useful.

Thanks. That looks very useful.

Hmmmm...
With the pseudo-Caribbean in play, it might not matter that the Shackles are small. The Free Captains' headquarters might still be there, but the heart of the action could have shifted across the sea. Dig out some old Maztica books (or Sons of Azca), put the Chelaxian Navy in the role of the real-world Spanish Armada, and treasure ships carrying the gold of Arcadia home to Egorian could become the ultimate score for a Free Captain. That's a tempting thought.
Where did you imagine Canorus or Anchor's End, Feros?
I put Anchor's End and Canorus just off the map to the north. They are about the same distance to the Ulfen colony of Valenhall as Port Shaw.
Effectively Port Shaw acts as a third Chelaxian colony in Arcadia, albeit one that is utterly corrupt and far from under Imperial control.
Oh and to speed up transport to and from Arcadia, I have the Eye of Abendego cause a massive air flow to the southwest. This is the same flow that causes Tempest Cay and Drenchport to be almost always blasted with strong winds and rain. This "counter-flow" makes passage through Gozreh's Passage as swift as normally passing east to the north. But since this goes against the natural air flows, storms and odd currents plague anyone making a run through the passage.
That's how I came up with the name: prayers to the sea god are often on the lips of sailors passing to Arcadia and the Razor Sea that way. The return trip through the Serpent's Run is dogged with sharp shoals and fang-like outcroppings if you go too close to the Sea of Teeth and harpies and sirens if you get too close to the cliffs of old Azlant.
Fast transport, but hardly safe.
This topic has also given me additional ideas to adapt Savage Tide to Golarion.
The Isle of Dread would work very well as one or the remnants of Azlant.

That's a good idea, Feros, with or without the rest of the Savage Tide AP.
A bad storm during the passage between Arcadia and the Inner Sea could result in an emergency landfall there. If that's too reminiscent of Bonewrack Island, then one of the treasures from the inner front cover maps could be there to lure the party in. It shouldn't be too hard to add gillmen, aquatic elves and scary Azlanti descendants (or their ghosts) to the Isle of Dread.
I forget which book it was in, but I vaguely remember Paizo publishing something about a lost colony on a chunk of Azlant. That should be pretty easy to transplant.
Edit: It was in Lost Cities of Golarion, appropriately enough. It might not fit quite so well on the Isle of Dread, though. The surrounding terrain seems kind of incompatible.
