USGS Topo · Published 1945About this map
The Faro lighthouse stands prominently at Pta Tuna, marking the southeastern coastal transition where the Mar Caribe meets the shore of Puerto Rico. This mid-1940s survey reveals a landscape defined by the intersection of coastal topography and agricultural legacy, particularly at Hacienda San Isidro. The interior is dominated by the steep rises of the Sierra de Palo Seco and peaks like Cerro Piedra Hueca, with numerous streams including Quebrada Jacaboa and Quebrada Florida draining toward the sea.
