About Desecheo Island
Desecheo Island is a small, rugged, uninhabited island located
in the
Mona Passage off the west coast of Puerto Rico, known for its
dramatic
cliffs, dry subtropical forest, and surrounding coral reefs.
Once used
for military training, the island has since been the focus of
major
environmental restoration efforts, including the successful
removal of
invasive species that allowed native plants and wildlife to
recover.
Today, Desecheo is a protected nature reserve, home to seabird
colonies,
lizards, and rich marine life, and it is internationally
recognized by
amateur radio operators as one of the world’s most sought-after
DX loca-
tions due to its rare status and strict access limitations.
CW & SSB ALWAYS UP
FT8 ALWAYS MSHV. NEVER F/H.
