Guilligan's Island, Small cay in Guánica, Puerto Rico
Gilligan's Island features mangrove-lined shores and shallow waters with coral formations where numerous fish species swim through clear waters.
The island, officially named Cayo Aurora, experienced structural changes from seismic activities, which altered parts of its natural landscape.
Local families and visitors gather at the designated picnic areas with barbecue pits to prepare traditional Puerto Rican meals by the water.
The cay maintains operating hours from 9 AM to 5 PM six days per week, with access available through kayak rentals or ferry service.
A roped-off swimming zone on the northern section protects swimmers while offering views of marine life in the surrounding waters.
