Explore San Lorenzo, Puerto Rico, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for San Lorenzo, Puerto Rico. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Puerto Rico or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to San Lorenzo.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

San Lorenzo reveals its character through a humid, coastal geography where the salt-heavy air lingers against the skin like a damp linen shroud. It lies 1.3 miles west-southwest of Arecibo, PR (from Arecibo, PR: bearing 254°T), and is situated 6.1 miles east-southeast of Hatillo. The terrain drops toward the shifting tides of Puerto Arecibo, while the nearby school playground serves as a quiet anchor for the neighborhood, its pavement baking under the relentless tropical sun. A mile away, the Río Santiago cuts a dark, serpentine path through the lowlands, drawing moisture into the soil and feeding the dense greenery that presses against the edges of every street. In the distance, the jagged silhouettes of the Montañas Guarionex rise against the horizon, a constant, hazy reminder of the rugged interior that contrasts with the flat, maritime expanse of the coast.
San Lorenzo carries the weight of a long, layered history, its economic pulse once tied to the rhythms of the earth and now humming with the quiet industry of a modern, coastal population. The proximity to Quebrada Seca shapes the local drainage and development, creating pockets of fertile ground that have supported generations of families who maintain a deep, unspoken connection to this specific stretch of land. Life moves with the deliberate pace of the tides, balanced between the influence of nearby Roca Resuello and the inland pull of places like the Bosque Estatal de Río Abajo or the distant waters of Lago Dos Bocas. Here, the everyday experience is defined by the interplay of water and wind, a persistent reminder that San Lorenzo exists in the delicate transition between the solid earth and the vast, open sea.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
