Spent a Saturday afternoon at the reserve. We rented bikes from a very friendly gentleman named Gerald and took the very well marked and fairly flat path. Stopped in a very rustic beach and took some photos. Hiked up to El Morrillo, which are two battlements from WWII. When we got there, a young lady and her boyfriend were conducting a photo shoot. You can see the photos. This, of course, made the trip amazing. If you are in Humacao, head to Punta Santiago and see the Humacao Nature Preserve!

Cerro Gordo Beach

Reviewed By andressantanamd - Springfield, United States

This is my wife’s hometown beach and it is a must every time we go to Puerto Rico. Very nice beach, nice and clean water. This time I was able to go try the food from Solimar. A small kiosk at the beach: and let me tell you! It was amazing. The alcapurrias were very tasty and not greasy and the octopus basket was the home run of the day.
