Chinería Island

About

Chinería Island, also known as Rondiña Island, is a river island of the Amazon River located on the Peruvian side of the Colombia–Peru border. It is located to the northwest of Santa Rosa Island, and to the south of Ronda Island, the latter part of Colombia. It is administered as part of Santa Rosa de Loreto since 2025 (having previously been part of Yavari District), one of five districts of Mariscal Ramón Castilla, a province of the Department of Loreto. Since 2024, its southern neighbour—considered by Peru to be part of Chinería Island itself—has been part of a territorial dispute with Colombia.
