• Waterproof • Tear-Resistant • Travel MapExplore the rich history and many recreation activities available in this lovely island territory with National Geographic’s Puerto Rico Adventure Map. Cities and towns are easy to identify and roadway designations are clearly indicated. Monuments and historical locations are noted in addition to a variety of sites for surfing, whale watching, diving, kayaking, wind surfing, sailing, and fishing. The locations of airports, harbors, anchorages, ferry routes, and toll plazas take the guesswork out of travel around the islands. Visitor centers are also marked for travelers seeking additional resources.One side of the print map includes the western half of the commonwealth including San Antonio, Arecibo, Vega Baja, Mayaguez, Ponce, and more. The reverse side shows the eastern half of the archipelago including San Juan, Fajardo, Caguas, Humacao, Cayey, and Guayama. Inset maps provide greater detail of the San Juan Area, Old San Juan, and Isla Mona.The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico lies in the northeastern Carribean Sea and attracts both visitors who are looking for a quiet island get-away and adventurers seeking excitement. The islands offer some of the most well-preserved Spanish colonial architecture in the New World, stunning beaches and coral reefs, tropical jungles, and all the modern amenities, hip restaurants, and glitzy nightlife you’d expect from a US territory.Every Adventure Map is printed on durable synthetic paper, making them waterproof, tear-resistant and tough — capable of withstanding the rigors of international travel.Map Scale = 1:125,000Sheet Size = 37.75" x 25.5"Folded Size = 4.25" x 9.25"

This review is written from the point of view of the tourist from the US mainland that would want to rent a car in Puerto-Rico.To the best of my knowledge there are four categories of roads in PR:US Interstate class highways, signaled with the typical Interstate blue and red shield. Usually toll roads. Posted speed limits typically 65 mph. Best. (note: rentals usually come with a pass for the tolls for a small additional fee on top of the toll)Other major highways, signaled with a blue-only shield (or sometimes black-only shield). Similar to a US highway. Usually free. Posted limits typically 55 mph. Better.Major roads with a lane in each direction, signaled with a blue and yellow pentagonal sign similar to a US county road sign (new signs) or a black and white sign with the outline of PR similar to a US state road sign (old signs). Similar to a US county road. Posted speed typically varies between 35 and 50 mph. Good.Minor roads with only 3/4 of a lane in each direction (so you have to slow down when you cross an incoming vehicle) signaled with a black and white circular sign (at least for new signs, seems old signs for minor roads are the same as old signs for major roads). No US equivalent. Don't expect averaging more than 20 mph even if no speed limit posted.Free maps given by rental agencies are usually small and don't always clearly differentiate between major and minor roads. GPS also typically assume that you can average 50 mph on a minor road and make you take them when the proper approach is in fact to stick to major roads as much as possible, even if that increases the driving distance significantly.So one needs a good map. And this map is the best map I found so far.However this map is not perfect.
