Isla Voltura

Isla Voltura is a peninsula of Isla Puerta in the North East of the Archipelago. The peninsula is directly North of Isla Huracan. The peninsula is one of the last areas of the Island group that saw human activity in the late 1800s.

Location
As one can see in the picture, Isla Voltura is connected by a brief land segment that has been enlargened greatly with the adition of the dijk that was made. Because of it's position and general inaccessibility, the peninsula was difficult to find for explorers who mainly used southern trading routes.

The peninsula was one of the earliest parts of the island that occurred right next to the existing Isla Huracan, which by the point of creation of Isla Voltura, had almost ceased volcanic activity to where it is today. Isla Voltura was created between 15 and 10 million years ago in a series of rapidly occuring volcanic blasts.

People
As the island was largely settled at the time that the Isla Voltura was found, few people saw new reason to settle the area. Due to access to flat land, the dijk was built conecting Isla Voltura to Isla Huracan. Otherwise the island was the stage of a small-scale revolution that happened in the early 1900s after which a miniature fort has been left behind at Punto Forto where a small fishing town is now.

Lore
Isla Voltura, for those who have not ventured there sometimes believe that the place is haunted and that those who go there never return, this may also be in part due to the people living on Isla Voltura seldom traveling in or out of the region (theories go about mountains causing problems, as well as ill-will.)
