1947 Map of Punta Verraco NE
USGS Topo · Published 1947About this map
Punta Verraco extends into the Mar Caribe along the southern coast of Puerto Rico in this 1947 topographic study. The landscape is defined by the sheltered waters of the Puerto de Guayanilla and the Bahia de Guayanilla, where the Río Yauco meets the sea. This preliminary survey, commissioned by Orlando R. Méndez, illustrates the coastal topography just before the mid-century industrial developments in the region. The map details natural landforms including Cerro Toro and several offshore features such as Cayo Mata and Cayo María Langa. Significant coastal points like Pta Ventana and Punta Guayanilla delineate the jagged shoreline, providing a clear record of the shoreline and coastal elevations prior to later modernization.
