Playa Tanga

One of many beautiful beaches to visit"

Playa Buye II
10 Selin Ozan

We had a blast with the kids at this fantastic spot. The water temperature was perfect and it's definitely worth visiting in the morning. However, it can get quite packed on weekends.

Playa La Mela
8 Nivaan Shrivastava

Villa Mela offers a rustic and enjoyable beach experience, perfect for those seeking a laid-back bungalow vibe rather than glamorous camping. Some updates to the kitchen and bathroom would be beneficial, but overall it's a great spot. As a local, I visited with my sister and niece and they also enjoyed it. I look forward to returning soon.

Playa Buye
10 Nikolina Marković

Upon seeing some photographs of the beach, I was initially skeptical and suspected that they may have been embellished. However, upon closer inspection, I can attest that this beach truly is a slice of heaven on the main island of Puerto Rico. Its beauty is truly breathtaking and unparalleled. What's more, this beach is incredibly easy to access and its waters are crystal clear, making it the perfect spot for swimming and snorkeling. The waves are not too big, making it a great spot for families with young children. Take a look at the photos below to see for yourself.
