Playa Escondida, Sand beach in Fajardo, Puerto Rico.
The secluded beach extends along a protected coastline with golden sand bordered by dense mangrove forests and Caribbean waters near Seven Seas Beach Park.
The Northeast Ecological Corridor Natural Reserve, where Playa Escondida is located, received official protection status in 2013 to preserve its natural ecosystems.
Local residents maintain the natural state of Playa Escondida through community initiatives, limiting development to protect nesting areas for sea turtles.
Visitors need to walk a 2.6-kilometer trail from Seven Seas Beach Park through mangrove forests, carrying water and supplies as no facilities exist onsite.
The beach maintains its natural character due to limited accessibility, requiring a 40-minute hike through forest paths to reach its isolated shores.
