Beach? Yes. After a hike from El Yunque, we decided to chill and check this place out. Parking: Fairly manageable, though it can definitely get busy during peak hours and weekends. Vibes: You're not too far away from El Yunque or the famous Luquillo kiosks. This is more of a bring-your-own setup. Plenty of beach space from the sand, some grass, and the dock to spread out with towels, chairs, coolers, or just post up under the palms. Honestly cleaner than I expected for such a popular public beach. The calm water was pleasant. What makes this stand out are the vendors - they have kiosks on the beaches and the Luquillo kiosks. This beach has balance. Families grilling and hanging out, couples relaxing, friend groups playing music, tourists enjoying the scenery, and locals simply enjoying their island. It somehow feels lively without becoming overwhelming. Overall: 5 Stars. Clean, calm, and iconic. Relaxing waters, beautiful scenery, nearby food, and an atmosphere that feels both local and welcoming. Whether you're doing a solo recharge day, family beach trip, or stopping through after El Yunque, this spot is absolutely worth the visit. Add this place on your list of to-dos. TIPS * Come earlier for easier parking and a more relaxed setup * Calm waters make this more beginner/family friendly than other beaches * Sunset here hits different * Luquillo is named after a former chief read more

Lively beach with clear water and an active ocean front. They have many shops near the beach for food and drinks. Many coconut trees to grab a coconut for free. This was the last stop after our El Yunque excursion. Pretty well put together. Heavily suggest sandals on feet since there was some glass on the floor in certain areas. read more

We visited Luquillo Beach on a Sunday, so as you can imagine there were a good number of people on the beach. Getting the umbrella and sun bed rental was a little busier than usual because of this. There was somewhat of a line, and we had to wait until some chairs were returned - but this didn't take much longer than 10-15 mins. I would encourage anyone hoping to visit over the weekend to get there earlier, to make sure that you have less of a wait if you'd like to rent sun loungers. The beach is extremely clean, and is along a beautiful stretch so that you can walk along the sand for a long while in each direction. read more

Great beach to stop by during a trip out East to El Yunque. The water is soo clear that it glistens in the sun while the ocean breeze blows. If you're hungry, there's a section of kiosks of over 55 different vendors serving a variety of items, so hopefully there's something for everyone. read more

Beach is always great BUT be careful with the resturant on the main walk way from the parking lot. They don't give you a menu and they over charged me for a small amount of food. $219!!!!!! I was pissed to say the least. read more

This beach is great for any size group or kind of group. The parking is free near the kiosks or there is a beach club that has hours that was closed the day we were there. The kiosks are a nice touch because you can quickly grab food and drinks (alcoholic) that you are allowed to bring out to the beach. You can look back up at the El Yunque rain forest from here and it was quite satisfying seeing the rain up there while we were on the beach. There is a ton of sand so you can spread out as long as you are willing to walk. We walked down a bit by the colorful lifeguard towers that were not being manned the day we were there. Not sure if it is part of the beach club that was closed. The waves are decently strong, but also the shallow part goes out a ways so safer for younger beachgoers. The only downfall was the mosquitos, but that didn't ruin our experience. read more

Through the years I've been to this beach about three times and I can see the human foot print is taking it's toll on the beach that now you have to cross over a bridge to get to the other side and despite the fact that there's plenty of garbage cans for you to dispose of your garbage, people tend to still throw the garbage on the beautiful beach sand, which I don't understand and I don't think I ever will. If you do walk past the jet ski area the beach does open up to endless beach nice Caribbean water and lots of food choices at the local kiosk area. Please people PLEASE if you come to enjoy the beach don't destroy the beach and clean up after yourselves. read more
