About this map

Aguadilla and the neighboring settlement of Aguada dominate the western coastline of the Island of Puerto Rico in this 2013 survey. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the Atlantic Ocean and the sheltered Bahía de Aguadilla to the rising elevations of the Cordillera Jaicoa and Los Cerros Viñet. Transportation hubs like the Rafael Hernandez Airport near El Faro Borinquen contrast with the traditional agricultural and residential patterns of Cabán.

Surface water is a prominent feature, with the Río Culebrinas and its tributaries, including Quebrada Grande and Quebrada Placeres, carving through the coastal plain. Notable landmarks such as the Punta Borinquen lighthouse area, the Borinquen Golf Club, and coastal recreation spots like Playa La Ruina and the Balneario Municipal de Aguada reflect the region's blend of aviation infrastructure, tourism, and community life. The map also traces the rugged interior hills, including Cerro Vigía and Cerro San José, providing a detailed look at the local topography.
