Beach fun at Loiza






After waiting for our handyman to spend 4 hours to install a fan (!!!), we were itching to get out and make the most of the beautiful weather. We went to a beach that is situated between Loiza and Pinones, just a short drive from home.
Its interesting to see the contrast between this beach, where there were only locals, was a lot more rugged and had little kioskos selling Acapurrias and Pina Coladas to just the next town along - Isla Verde which is tourist central with Starbucks and McDonalds.

This beach is rather interesting - they have a natural breakwater, but the water in the sheltered area has a very strong current. It was fun for people like me that love the water and didnt mind being carried down the breakwater, but most people hung close to the shore.

Alpen found a friend - a 4 month old Bull Terrier named "Bull" (how original?!), which she had a lot of fun wrestling with. A great afternoon!
