Explore Tallaboa, 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 Tallaboa, 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 Tallaboa.
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.

Tallaboa occupies a sun-drenched stretch of the southern coast where the land yields to the rhythmic push and pull of the Caribbean tides. It lies 6.8 miles west of Ponce, PR (from Ponce, PR: bearing 261°T), and is situated 9.2 miles east-southeast of Yauco. The horizon is defined by the silhouette of Peñon de Ponce, which rises with a stoic, craggy presence above the low-lying plains that slope toward the shimmering expanse of Bahía Tallaboa. Life here unfolds in the heavy, salt-sweet air, where the light at dusk turns the dusty roads a bruised violet and the palm fronds rattle like dry parchment against the cooling sky. Nearby, the quiet presence of Bosque Estatal de Guánica provides a stark contrast to the open shore, its dense, scrubby thickets harboring a resilient ecosystem that thrives in the heat, while the nearby Cayo Parguera waits offshore like a submerged secret.
Tallaboa carries the physical weight of its industrial legacy, with the gentle, persistent current of Río Tallaboa serving as a historic conduit for the region’s economic pulse. The local pace is dictated by the intersection of maritime activity and the slow, steady habits of those who work the land and the docks, a routine grounded in the necessity of the sea. While the bustle of larger ports hums in the distance, the daily existence here remains tethered to a distinct sense of place, far removed from the inland serenity of Lago Guayo or the distant, shaded paths of Vereda Alcantarilla. On quiet afternoons, one can hear the faint, rhythmic thrum of commerce echoing across the water, a sound that has defined the character of the neighborhood for generations as it balances the demands of modern industry with the enduring, sun-bleached simplicity of its coastal heritage.

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.
