Balneario El Escambrón

Beautiful beach and one of the best places for seeing a sunset! It is pretty clean for a public beach! Lots of parking available! Must visit if you’re visiting San Juan!

Stunning beaches. They have multiple bathrooms and lifeguards on duty There are some small food vendors. But no major restaurants. Parking is under $7 for 24 hours. There are restaurants within walking distance Beautiful, calm beach. With a reef barrier to protect all from rip Current. Definitely safe for small children still, it’s water. Parents need to be alert.

Balneario El Escambrón was perfect. You have the option to go snorkeling, either through a tour company or on your own if you have your own equipment. The water is incredibly calm, since it’s a protected area, which makes it a very safe and family-friendly spot especially for kids. They have bathrooms on-site and plenty of trees that provide great shade, making it comfortable to spend a few hours there. The water is super clear and beautiful. The only downside is that there aren’t many food options available right at the beach. However, you can easily order Uber Eats or take a short 10-minute walk to nearby coffee shops or food trucks. Other than that, it’s an amazing place. I absolutely loved it, highly recommend it, and will definitely be back!

Love the flag planted on the little island across the beach. Beautiful views of the el capitolio de puerto rico building, del morro, castillo san cristobal. All very nice =]

Visited during my stay at the Sheraton (free regular shuttle) and it was so chill! You can rent umbrellas and chairs, a good move if planning to be there all day or for a good amount of time $30. The waves were hittin strong, so be careful and know your swim level, but there is a lifeguard. I didn’t see any food nearby which was a bummer, cause we hadn’t planned right to stay longer. Would definitely go back with snacks and plans to stay longer.
