User reviews

"This beach has a rich history and is worth a visit. During my visit, the water was rough and appeared treacherous for swimming. It's important to exercise caution and use your better judgment before taking a dip in unfamiliar waters as Puerto Rican beaches have seen many tourists drown each year."

Aiden J.

"The beach is a great place with beautiful landscapes, and it's worth mentioning that the sand is gray. Overall, it's a fantastic spot to relax and enjoy the scenery."
