If you return to or stay on the coastal highway, you'll soon reach
Luquillo Beach. This huge plantation of majestic coconut palms shades
more than a mile of fine and shimmering sand. It is one of the most popular and
nicest public beaches in the San Juan area. It offers cafeterias,
public bathrooms with showers, access for disabled people, and an ample parking
lot. Monserrate Beach is one of the public beaches most frequented by the locals.
Luquillo is located in the northeast coats,
northwest of Fajardo; and east of Río Grande.
There are many well-known "luquillenses", among them:
sculptor Tomás
Batista.
