Fodor's Review:

A magnet for families, this government-maintained beach is well equipped with changing areas and restrooms, lifeguards, food stands and picnic areas, and even stands where you can order a cocktail. Its most distinctive facility, though, is the Mar Sin Barreras (Sea without Barriers), a low-sloped ramp leading into the water that allows wheelchair users to take a dip. The beach is off Route 3 as you head toward Fajardo.

Cost: Parking $3
Open: Tues.-Sun. 9-5

The surf is rough here, and there is PLENTY of garbage in the surf, and on the beach.

Loquillo beach is amazingly scenic. The beach has a lawn with many palm trees in front of it. This area also has many picnic tables - ideal for families with kids and even for others. The beach itself is a wonderful sight with azure blue waters and white sands!
