The "Gateway to the Sun" is how tourism officials describe the island's western coast. Although the name calls to mind well-developed, well-traveled vacations spots like Spain's Costa de Sol, the Porta del Sol is neither. Unlike the area around San Juan, the Porta del Sol is relatively undiscovered. Even around Rincón, which has the lion's share of the lodgings, the beaches are delightfully deserted. And in places like Aguadilla and Isabela, two sleepy towns on the northwestern corner of the island, it's easy to find a stretch of shoreline all to yourself.
