Answer 1

Although Puerto Rico is ussually reffered as an island in reality it is a group of islands which includes (but not limited to):

* Puerto Rico (or Isla Grande (The Big Island) as the residents of Vieques & Culebra calls the largest island)

* Vieques (also called Isla Nena (The Little Girl Island))

* Culebra

* Isla de Mona

* Monito

* Palomino

* Palominito

* Caja de Muertos

* Isla de Guilligan's

* Desecheo

Many more small islands or keys.

Maps of Puerto Rico ussually show: Puerto Rico, Vieques, Culebra, and Isla De Mona. The others are so small that they frequently are omitted.

Yes. The island is on the western side of the main island; between PR and Domonican Republic.

Mona and Monito islands are located in the same area.
