The smaller islands include Marie-Galante, La Désirade and Îles des Saintes. The archipelago is situated between the Caribbean Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean, southeast of Puerto Rico. The total landarea of Guadeloupe is 1630 km², that is slightly smaller than two thirds of Luxembourg, or somewhat larger than half the size of Rhode Island.
