Beautiful waterfall with swimming and an underwater cave. Roughly 45 minutes from Rincón in San Sebastían, it's great for an afternoon adventure. There are quite a few stairs down to the waterfall. We have done it with a small child without issue. Those with mobility concerns may find this space has accessibility challenges.

Easily accessible waterfall in Rincón. Conditions can vary depending on rainfall. I've been told it's a nice thing to check out, be wary of swimming there depending on rain and mud.

Food scene

The Beach House boasts one of the best views in Rincón with a clear shot of Desecheo Island, the lighthouse and seemingly endless ocean. They serve a mix of American diner fare and Puerto Rican dishes. They offer a full bar and live music (varies day of the week and season). Open 7 days a week, it's an excellent choice for Monday- Wednesday when many restaurants are closed.

Villa Cofresi offers lively oceanfront dining 7 days a week. They're famous for their iconic "Pirata" drink served in a fresh coconut (and surprisingly strong). The lapping waves and great service make Villa Cofresi a standout.

There's something for everyone here. From a pool built right into the ocean (Playita Rosada), lively kiosks, restaurants and bars along the oceanfront. Rent a boat and explore the mangroves and keys. Or take a water taxi to Isla Mata la Gata for swimming and lounging. It's roughly 45 minutes to La Parguera and well worth the journey.
