==Location and geography==
While geographically it is considered an island on its own right,〔(Bahia de Ponce and Approaches. BookletChart. Chart Number 25683. US Government. NOAA. ) Retrieved 22 May 2011.〕 Gatas is actually physically attached to the Puerto Rico mainland, thanks to the construction of a dike in the 1950s. In this sense it now a cape more than an island in the strictest sense.〔(''Isla de Gata, PR.'' ) Retrieved 5 May 2011.〕 The dyke grew the original one-acre island to the current 13 acres (0.053 square kilometers).〔(''Yacht Club of the Month: Ponce Yacht and Fishing Club.''
