This was one of our favorite hiking experiences in Puerto Rico!…read moreWe parked at the Gozalandia campground and hiked up to the Shared Falls, which made it more of an adventure. Definitely wear water shoes, (or tennis shoes you don't mind getting wet.) The rocks are super slippery, but totally worth the views and the swim under the falls. If you park in the falls parking lot, you will have a super steep set of stairs to get down/ back up. There are a few overlooks that you can see the falls without walking all the way down. The drive to the falls is as much of an adventure as the falls themselves- super windy and narrow roads- but a beautiful area!

Both were beautiful as well as the grounds. Rocks can be slippery so con cuidate! It's also a lil bit of hike when youre coming back up the steps, so preparado!

I heard about this beach from the local owners of a cute rockaway beach/long beach style boutique…read moreshop in town. We took their advice after asking about nearby snorkeling locations and were blown away. The flat rocks and reef right off the coast attract all sort of different sea life and as result, this quickly became over favorite snorkeling spot we found on our trip. It really feels as clear as it can get. The feeling of watching hundreds of beautiful and blue fish glide beneath you while you're effortlessly floating along the warm saltwater is like no other. This beach is extremely chill and low key. Parking is super simple as people just park where they can along the side of the very long dirt road that leads down to the beach. You're basically behind the backyards of a long row of houses that line the beach so everyone is mindful of the neighbors. As with many of the beaches in Puerto Pico, the jetty corners of the beach curiously invite you to take a peak around them. One fella set up an entire hammock within a large tree and even started a small campfire. No one seemed to mind, again it was all very chill. The beach gets its name from this set particular of steps (stairs?) that jet out from the water. It must have been from a previous dock or structure that was originally there and it makes for a really and unique cool setting. There is also a swing set that is a popular photo spot on social media but I could not manage to get up up on it (seems like it's easier to do during low-tide). We did however to capture some pretty fun photos of different angles all around the beach. So if you find yourself on the west side of the island and want to experience some phenomenal snorkeling, you've got to find this spot!

We accessed Survival Beach via a 2 mile trail to see the sea caves on the way. The sea caves were…read moreawesome! At the end of the trail was the beach and it was incredibly blue and clean. The waves are definitely aggressive and I wouldn't risk going further out than about 30 feet because the sand quickly changes to bedrock and you would risk getting extremely injured if swept under by a wave.

If you are reading this because you are thinking to go to survival beach, please allow me to share…read morebelow: - You need to finish a REAL HIKE to get to the beach. - I'd rate this hike as MODERATE to DIFFICULT. As of August 2025, this hike is OVERGROWN and not clearly marked, imho. The info board says that it takes 30-min but it took us 45-min one-way. - You need to have closed toe shoes and sufficient water. I think one thing is about managing your expectations which may not be fully shown disclosed in certain tik tok videos: - The view is descent, but the waves are aggressive. - The beach is not crowded since it is a bit off the beaten path - BUT does it really worth packing two types of shoes (sportswear and beachwear), 90-min hiking in the jungle, and risks of washing away by aggressive waves. Overall, I'd NOT recommend this beach to my friends unless he/she is adventurous and physically fit.

This mini-rain forest park was a very cool activity to do while in PR. It's close to San Juan/…read moreGuaynabo area as well. There is parking and overflow parking-for overflow they have a cart that brings you to the gate. Tickets can be purchased in advance or at the gate. They are $13 for adults and $8 for under 12 or over 60 and the ticket includes cable cart ride, aviary, butterfly garden , and a ride to the waterfall stop and observation tower, which at the end drops you off at the entrance again. It had just rained when we arrived so we didn't see a lot of butterflies, just between 10-15 monarch which were beautiful. They do have a lot of cockatoos of many colors and sizes, flamingos, and peacocks. The birds are all over, some very close to the walk path. After that you board the cart to the waterfall- it's a quick walk from the drop off point, and there's a bit of a hike to the observation tower but it's worth it. Overall it was a really fun afternoon. It can be enjoyed in 2-3 hrs taking your time

Our family absolutely loved our visit to Forestal La Marquesa. It was one of the highlights of our…read moretrip and I would highly recommend it, especially for families with children. The bird and butterfly pavilions are simply amazing. The animals are so close that at times you almost wonder if they are real until a bird squawks, blinks, or moves. The experience feels much more personal than many larger attractions and was a huge hit with our children. The cable cars are an incredible experience and offer some truly spectacular views. Riding above the forest is something we will remember for a long time. However, if you have an extreme fear of heights, you should know that this attraction may be challenging. The views throughout the park are beautiful, and there are several small playgrounds where children can take a break and play. There are also long nature trails and an observation tower that offer even more opportunities to enjoy the scenery. That said, visitors should understand that this is a physically demanding park in some areas. If you have mobility limitations, certain disabilities, or are pushing a stroller, you may not be able to experience everything. There are many long walking paths, steep hills, and staircases throughout the park. The park does provide warning signs before many of these sections, so pay attention to them. The path leading to the cable cars also includes stairs, and during our visit the elevator was out of service. This made things particularly difficult for visitors with disabilities and families using strollers. Bring water. Bring snacks. Do not attempt to visit without them, especially if you plan to explore the trails. The Puerto Rico heat and the amount of walking can catch up with you quickly. Transportation is another thing visitors should plan carefully. We relied on Uber, which worked, but drivers generally only dropped us off and picked us up at the main parking lot rather than the actual park entrance. The distance is significant enough that visitors must take the shuttle bus to the entrance. The shuttle runs regularly and gets the job done, but think converted school bus rather than luxury transportation. The gift shop is somewhat small and the prices are a bit high, but honestly, it felt worthwhile. Purchasing something there felt like supporting the important work being done at the park. Overall, our family had an outstanding experience. I think Parque Forestal La Marquesa is a perfect introduction to nature and hiking for children who may not yet be ready for more demanding adventures like El Yunque. It allows kids to experience the beauty of Puerto Rico's natural environment in a setting that feels adventurous while still being family friendly. We made wonderful memories here and would absolutely visit again!
