About this map

The western coastline of Cabo Rojo is defined by a dense network of coastal inlets and mountainous terrain, anchored by the fishing community of Puerto Real. This 2013 survey illustrates the local importance of the coastline, showing the maritime infrastructure of Puerto Real and Joyuda Beach. Inland, the landscape transitions into the hills of Cordillera Sabana Alta and Cerro Conde Ávila, where various streams such as Quebrada Las Tunas and Quebrada Mendoza drain toward the Caribbean Sea.

Genealogical and cultural sites are distributed across the quadrangle, including the Cementerio Delicias and the historical grounds of Hacienda Belvedere. The map documents the development of the region's southern corridor, featuring the settlement of Betances and the Boqueron Airport near the protected waters of Bahia de Boquerón. This layout reflects a balance between residential growth, such as in the town of Cabo Rojo, and recreational spaces like the Balneario Público de Boquerón.
