Notes
  • Significance: The Guanica Light is completely vandalized and in ruins, projected against the hills and dry mountains which form the east entrance to Guanica Harbor; one of the most important, busiest, and best of the Island. Similar to Cabo Rojo, the rocky and desertic land is unsuitable for cultivation.
  • Survey number: HAER PR-14
  • Building/structure dates: 1892 Initial Construction
