Island of Puerto Rico

The geography of Puerto Rico encompasses an archipelagic and island nation centered around a collective identity based on its land, history, ethnicity, culture, and language, and organized as a self-governing unincorporated territory of the United States. Located between the Greater and Lesser Antilles in the northeastern Caribbean, east of Hispaniola, west of Saint Thomas, north of Venezuela, and south of the Puerto Rico Trench, it consists of the eponymous main island and over 140 smaller islands, islets, and cays, including San Juan in the north, Vieques, Culebra, Palominos, and Icacos in the east, Caja de Muertos and Caracoles in the south, and Mona, Monito, and Desecheo in the west.
