Puerto Rico Beaches
For swimming or sun-bathing in Puerto Rico, you will not have to go far. Puerto Rico is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world.
Seven Seas (Road 987, Fajardo) is only about 5 minutes away from The Fajardo Inn.
An excellent place to snorkel, the shallow waters at Seven Seas are swarming with tropical fish, coral and an abundance of other marine life. Offshore reefs help keep the waves down and strong trade winds make it an ideal spot for sailing and windsurfing. Nearby are water sports facilities, as well as a string of uninhabited islets that provide a secluded piece of tropical paradise and more fantastic snorkeling.
Luquillo Beach, Puerto Rico's most famous and most often visited beach on the Island, (Route 3, Km 35.4, Luquillo) is about 15 minutes away. Offshore reefs keep the waters calm, so families can relax knowing that rough surf and deep waters are far away.
Modest shacks to sophisticated miniature restaurants line the entrance of the beach, each serving everything from alcoholic beverages and refreshments to traditional seafood fritters and meals. Each also seems to have its own Caribbean beat!
Both beaches are government-run and offer dressing rooms, lifeguards, and parking facilities.
