2013 Map of Central Aguirre

About this map

Central Aguirre and the neighboring settlement of Coquí anchor this coastal survey of southern Puerto Rico, where the industrial history of the sugar era meets the Caribbean shoreline. The landscape is defined by the deep indentation of the Bahía de Jobos, protected by the reef-fringed Cayos de Barca and the long peninsula ending at Punta Pozuelo. To the east, the terrain rises toward the outskirts of Guayama, where the Río Guamaní flows toward the coast. Significant maritime features including Boca del Infierno and the Puerto de Las Mareas- Jobos highlight the area's importance as a sheltered harbor. Local landmarks like the Aguirre Golf Club and various named streets such as Calle Betances and Calle Principal provide specific geographic markers for those researching the social and physical layout of these historic company towns and coastal communities.
