Isla Muerta, also known as Site C, is the second Jurassic World island operation, located in the Muertes Archipelago between Isla Matanceros to the north, and Isla Sorna to the south.
All the Jurassic Park movies were filmed on the Hawaiian Islands of Kauai, Maui, and Oahu. That being said, in the movies, the islands are supposed to be located on the fictional Isla Nublar off the Pacific coast of Costa Rica.

Four years after the original film, John Hammond (Attenborough) loses control of his company InGen to his nephew, Peter Ludlow (Howard). On the verge of bankruptcy, Ludlow intends to exploit dinosaurs from InGen's second island, Isla Sorna, with plans for a new dinosaur theme park in San Diego.
What happened to the dinosaurs on the second island?
In 2004, in an effort to save the island's inhabitants from extinction, Simon Masrani had Isla Sorna's surviving dinosaurs shipped to Isla Nublar, where they would eventually be exhibited alongside recently cloned animals in Jurassic World. As of 2018, Isla Sorna is reportedly abandoned, though it remains restricted.

Why was Site B abandoned?
Jurassic Park Franchise
In the novels or Trespasser, Site B is abandoned because InGen was bankrupt, but, in the movie canon InGen survived the downfall of the Park and therefore an explanation was needed as to why InGen would leave the dinosaurs behind on the island.
When Masrani bought InGen and opened Jurassic World, they took the remaining living dinosaurs from Site B and transported them to populate their new park on Isla Nublar. Isla Sorna was then abandoned and became a dead zone.
Since these islands existed in the pacific, they were prone to constant hurricanes and other severe weather. In The Lost World: Jurassic Park, John Hammond explained that Isla Sorna had been "wiped out" due to Hurricane Clarissa, which caused everyone to evacuate.
So what went wrong? If you ask the critics, about half of them would tell you that the film felt obligatory, that it lost most of what made the original so awe-inspiring in favor of more boilerplate monster movie trappings, even if those creature effects were outstanding.
Isla Nublar was leased from Costa Rica by InGen. The park was built but never opened before it suffered a massive containment breach. The island was abandoned for the next decade.
Located two hundred miles from the western coast of Costa Rica, the Muertes Archipelago, otherwise known as Las Cinco Muertes or the Five Deaths, earned its name from a Native American legend in which a warrior was given a choice of five different methods of execution and chose each of them.
The Eruption of Mt. Sibo was a geological event and the third and final catastrophe to impact Isla Nublar, which saw the central volcano of Isla Nublar, Mt. Sibo, erupt and destroy the entire island.

Isla Nublar is a fictional Central American island that serves as a major setting in the first novel and its film adaptation, as well as the films Jurassic World and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. According to the novel, its name means "Cloud Island" in Spanish.
The majority of the film was captured in the picturesque settings of Hawaii, particularly on the northeastern shore of Molokai and at the renowned Jurassic Kahili Ranch on Kauai. These verdant and stunning locales imbued the movie with an authentic feel, portraying an island teeming with dinosaurs.
Jurassic World may have been originally imagined as a trilogy, but the franchise isn't extinct yet. A fourth film in the sequel series to Jurassic Park has been green-lit ahead of a summer 2025 release. It will be the seventh blockbuster in the franchise overall, and the first since 2022's Jurassic World: Dominion.
What happened to the little girl in Jurassic Park 2?
Young Cathy Bowman (Camilla Belle) was attacked by a group of Compsognathus triassicus (aka "Compys"). However, Hammond assures Ian that she is just fine now. In Michael Crichton's series, the little girl is attacked in the opening chapters of the first Jurassic Park novel.
The series was removed from the schedule after the DVD release in the United States after a third Time Warner company, New Line Television, sold the DVD region 1 distribution rights to Image Entertainment. The DVD region 2 distribution rights were sold to Liberation Entertainment.
During the Isla Nublar Incident in 1993, a female T. rex escaped from her enclosure, and became wild on the island. Seven Tyrannosaurs existed on Isla Sorna, an island in the Muertes Archipelago originally used by InGen as a cloning facility for their dinosaurs.
Site C was an island located in the South Pacific close to 750 kilometres from the Five Deaths. It was around 24 square kilometres, slightly larger than Isla Nublar, and was an extra storage for dinosaurs after the storage pens on Isla Sorna became too crowded.
This quartet of less pivotal locations is named after the gruesome fates of burning, drowning, crushing, and beheading respectively. The most important island of the five deaths, however, is the infamous Isla Sorna, named after the fate of hanging, stand the primary location for the first Jurassic Park sequel.
While explaining what happened, Hammond assures Malcolm that Cathy survived the attack and implies she didn't suffer any permanent physical injuries (though she's undoubtedly traumatized by the event).
Spinosaurus was one of the few dinosaurs cloned in the Embryonics Administration lab, alongside Ankylosaurus, Ceratosaurus, and Corythosaurus, sometime after 1997. As such, and being far after the Isla Nublar Incident, it was not a dinosaur on InGen's List and was not planned to be an attraction in Jurassic Park.
26 of these raptors were created on Sorna, 8 of which were moved to Isla Nublar for Jurassic Park. The pack lived in the self-titled Velociraptor Paddock. Eventually, a raptor that Jurassic Park Game Warden Robert Muldoon called "The Big One" was created and sent to live with the pack.
