2013 Map of Isla Desecheo

USGS Topo · Published 2013

About this map

Isla Desecheo rises from the Atlantic Ocean in this 2013 topographic survey, marking a distinct and isolated landform within the jurisdiction of Mayagüez, Puerto Rico. The map illustrates the island's steep elevation contours, which reach several hundred feet above sea level, contrasting sharply with the surrounding marine environment. Because the island is uninhabited and serves as a protected refuge, the topography remains the primary focus, showing no roads, buildings, or other human infrastructure. The boundary line for the Mayagüez municipality curves through the open waters to the north and east of the island, defining the maritime limits of this territorial outpost.
