Food Scene

Really nice restaurant for lunch and dinner, with a wide variety of options. The fresh fish is delicious, as is the mofongo, a local delicacy. There's also a wide variety of drinks to choose from in the bar area. The restaurant is located in a safe spot, with private parking, and its easily accessible from the apartment, at one a one minute drive away.

This place is as much a restaurant as it is a small bar... But its amazing. They have a very limited menu, but everything is delicious. Their signature dish is the fish tacos, which I absolutely recommend. As for drinks, they make some of the best mojitos around. The place is packed/full on sunday afternoons, so plan ahead if you plan to go.

If you want one of the best, if not the best, pork sandwiches around, look no further. This is the place to go. I recommended ordering to go, and enjoying this delicious meal at the apartment. Its good, inexpensive, and easily accessible from the apartment. Make sure to ask for "cuerito" (crispy pork skin) in the sandwich!

Nice place to enjoy some drinks, and live music (check their facebook page to see who's on schedule to play). They also have food, including some really nice bites to go with drinks.

This is one of the nicest restaurants in the area. I highly recommend making reservations! Its a bit on the high side in terms of cost, but the quality is worth it. They also make some of the best drinks you'll find in Arecibo. They update their facebook page frequently, so I recommended checking it out before going to the restaurant, as they change the menu almost weekly. They also have brunch on Sundays!

Parks & Nature

This is one of the most iconic spots in Arecibo. Its a small cave system, leading to an open cliff with stunning views, thus called La Ventana (translated to window from spanish).

A really nice beach, safe for families. The bathing area is surrounded by rocks, so there's no risk of riptides or strong surf in that area. I recommend to get there early on weekends, as it can get crowded, particularly during weekends with holidays. Its a fun beach for the whole family. Parking could be limited, and there is no security in the area.

This beach is right in front of the apartment, at walking distance, with nearby food trucks for snacking while you enjoy the sun. Its primarily a surf spot, so there's usually some high waves, so if surfing is your thing this is the spot for you. The beach has some amazing sunsets, with a direct view to the Arecibo lighthouse.
