Puerta de Tierra - Escambrón Beach

(Local Name: Playa Escambrón) Playa Escabron is typical of a Caribbean Island beach. Warm clear waters lapping up on caramel colored sands backed by swaying palm trees. Playa Escabron is lined with hotels and restaurants and the scene here can be quite fun at times.

The beach has lifeguards and the conditions of the surf are posted with flags. It is fun to stroll down the beach and soak up the natural and human scenery. The Playa Escambron is located in Puerta de Tierra, one of San Juan's rougher districts and it is not recommended that visitors stay past dusk. Also, keep an eye on your valuables while on the beach.
