Punta Higuero Beach, Sand beach in Puntas, Puerto Rico

The Punta Higuero Beach extends along the northwestern coast of Puerto Rico, offering swimming and surfing conditions throughout most of the year.

Since the 1960s, Punta Higuero Beach has developed from a local fishing spot into a recognized destination for international surfing competitions.

The beach community maintains strong connections to surfing traditions, with regular gatherings of local surfers passing skills to younger generations.

Visitors can find parking spaces near the shoreline, with multiple food establishments and equipment rental services within walking distance.

The proximity to the Punta Higuero Lighthouse allows beachgoers to observe humpback whales during their migration period from December through March.
