Aguadilla, Puerto Rico

Travel distance from San Juan: 82.4 mi (about 1 hour 49 mins)

Background:

A small fishing village with a bustling industrial center. For all its terrestrial attractions, Aguadilla remains a city dominated by a passion for the ocean. Consequently, the city is known by a variety of names such as “Village of the Eye of the Water”, “Town of Sharks” and “Atlantic Garden."

Surfing is a primary reason to visit Aguadilla because the waves are a challenge for even the most accomplished surfers. Yet, novices need not worry for there are some gentle stretches as well. Crashboat beach is justifiably one of the top surfing spots in Puerto Rico; an incredibly picturesque area also known for its snorkeling.
