I went to the large beach area just past the hospital in Condado, on a Monday.. There were a handful of surfers, a few sun bathers, and nothing else. I asked a surfer if there was chairs and umbrellas to rent, but he said not today, and I should go to one of the small beaches at the hotels.. I... More

I really wasn't sure I was going to like the beaches in PR, but Ocean Park was lovely! Soft sand and great waves! There is also some good small shells to find as well. I have been to the Dominican Republic, Hawaii, Mexico, Jamacia and Thailand.... I really did think this was a very pretty beach. The only thing is... More

We stayed at the Numero Uno Guest House right on the beach in Ocean Park. There were many kite surfers and skim-boards along with the many beer filled ice chest and picnic supplied guests. There are a few vendors with food, beer, sodas, etc but no pushy vendors approaching you or disturbing your enjoyable day at the beach. Get here... More

I spent a Sunday on this beach because it was right outside of my hotel. It was nice because on the weekdays, it's more quite with only a few tourists. However on the weekends, it gets lively with locals and their dogs, food, music and even a drum circle! It's clean, the water is clear and the waves are fun... More

The beach at Ocean Park goes on for miles. It is clean, wide and safe. It is very family friendly and what could be better than enjoying local beer on a hot day on the beach? Try this beach on a Sunday, when the island converges to the coast line to enjoy time with friends and family. It is an... More

Clean, quite but can be crowded and still be able to be on your own. I really liked that the locals always welcome you and have a few nice words to say to you, it is kind of accommodating, make you feel home!
