Punta Borinquen - Aguadilla - Puerto Rico West Coast Beaches

The best time to see the beautiful hidden spots of Punta Borinquen is during the summer months in the low tide when the sea allows safe access to the caves on the east end.  Be sure to bring good non-slip shoes to find the caves.  There are no lifeguards like most public beaches in Puerto Rico, so enjoy with care and don’t come alone in case you need help.

During the winter months, the caves are claimed by the water coming in from strong waves and are typically not accessible or visible, and most definitely not safe to attempt to access.

At the west end of Punta Borinquen, you’ll find the ruins of Ruinas del Faro La Ponderosa “Ponderosa Lighthouse Ruins”,  which has always been a favorite spot for local photographers and a popular background for engagement photos.
