1947 Map of Punta Tuna NO

About this map

Hacienda San Isidro sits along the southern coast of Puerto Rico in this mid-1940s topographic study, illustrating the agricultural and educational landscape of the era. The terrain is defined by the sharp rise of Sierra de Guardarraya and Cerro Piedra Hueca, where small streams like Quebrada Higuera and the Rio Jacaboa descend toward the Mar Caribe. The map documents the boundary between Municipio de Patillas and Municipio de Maunabo, marking a transition in local administration and land use. Coastal features such as Pta Viento and the presence of the Escuela Segunda Unidad de Guardarraya highlight the proximity of rural educational centers to the shoreline, while the inland label for Florida suggests localized settlement patterns during a time when the island's interior was heavily shaped by its coastal proximity.
