Located just outside the El Yunque National Forest, Luquillo Beach is a beautiful crescent-shaped beach known for its fine white sand and its calm waters. There's plenty of space to spread out towels and beach chairs, and the beach is fringed with waving palm trees that provide some much-needed shade on hot days. The water is usually calm enough for even young children to swim, but lifeguards are sometimes on duty, and lockers are available for a small fee if you want to swim without worrying about your belongings. Other amenities include outdoor showers, change rooms, and restrooms that can be used for a fee.
