Playa Colora' and Playa Escondida or someplace near that...Fajardo P.R.




Another weekend exploring Puerto Rico. This weekend I repeated the odyssey of visiting Playa Colora on Saturday (yup I really liked the spot and it's a perfect place to take beautiful pictures). On Sunday I tried to reach "Playa Escondido" in Fajardo. I was looking for a nice beach to do some snorkeling and as always I Google it. According to Frommers :

"Some of the best snorkeling in Puerto Rico is in and around Fajardo. Its beach, Playa Seven Seas, is not as hotsy-totsy as Luquillo Beach, but is an attractive and sheltered strip of sand. The beach lies on the southwestern shoreline of Las Cabezas peninsula and is crowded on weekends. For even better snorkeling, walk along this beach for about half a mile (.8km) to another beach, called Playa Escondido ("Hidden Beach"). Coral reefs in clear waters lie right off this beach."

So I inmediately got really interested in visiting this beach. I did walk half a mile but I think I never find the "Hidden Beach" with the coral reefs lying right off the beach as Frommers said ha ha ha. Don't know if I what at the correct spot but I did walk from Seven Seas maybe more than a half mile and never get to the coral reefs...I think from now on I will do my own reviews on Snorkeling and don't trust just what I read. Anyway it was a good opportunity to try my new "Sun Shelter"
