2018 Map of Rincon

About this map

The western coastline of Puerto Rico meets the Caribbean Sea at Punta Cadena, where the foothills of La Cadena descend toward the shore. This topographic survey captures the area as it appeared in 2018, defined by the drainage of numerous streams including Quebrada Piletas and Quebrada Grande de Calvache. The coastal settlements of Rincón and Stella sit northwest of the Cerros de San Francisco, while to the south, the landscape transitions into the alluvial plains of the Río Grande de Añasco. This southern sector is marked by coastal wetlands such as Ciénaga El Guayabal and the presence of the Eugenio María de Hostos Airport. Significant for genealogy and local history, the map locates the Cementerio Municipal de Rincón and the Cementerio Municipal de Añasco near the urban centers of La Playa and Luyando.
