Luquillo Beach

Luquillo Beach, located 30 miles east of San Juan, is one of Puerto Rico's most beautiful. The long crescent-shaped stretch of golden-kissed sand is bordered by swaying coconut trees and backed by a picturesque seaside stretch of the blue sea. This great beach is ideal for swimming (lifeguards are on duty during the day).

The beach stretches for about a mile and attracts joggers and walkers alike. There are also public restrooms on the beach, as well as showers and locker rooms. Local food sellers may also be found just outside the entryway. Camping space is also available. You may hire a kayak or try fly-boarding if you want to go in the water but don't want to swim. One of Puerto Rico's greatest natural attractions, the El Yunque National Forest, is situated close beyond the shore, making for a great day excursion.
