CASTLE ATLAS

Regional route

Caribbean Fortress Research Route

Compare San Juan and Santiago de Cuba through two source-identified coastal fortresses.

Castillo San Felipe del Morro and Castillo de San Pedro de la Roca support a coastal-fortification research comparison, not a claim of complete Caribbean coverage.

Source-identified examples

Compare harbor geography

Map the relationship between each site, coastline, and historic approach, then source any strategic interpretation separately.

  • Record coordinates.
  • Use period-appropriate charts carefully.
  • Label modern shoreline change when relevant.

Keep territory codes explicit

Castle Atlas reports country/territory codes, not a count of sovereign states. Puerto Rico is one reason that language matters.

  • Use country/territory wording.
  • Do not relabel source codes politically.
  • Explain the dataset field.

Check current requirements

Cross-border travel, site operations, and transport are outside the static route. Consult current official sources.

  • No visa advice here.
  • No opening-hour promise.
  • Recheck government guidance.
