Playa Santa, Sand beach in Guánica, Puerto Rico
The white sand beach stretches along the southern coast of Puerto Rico, featuring clear waters and gentle waves perfect for swimming and water activities.
The beach area has served as a vital recreational destination since the 1950s, contributing to the development of Puerto Rico's tourism industry in the south.
Local food vendors at the Malecón offer traditional Puerto Rican seafood dishes, representing the regional gastronomy of the southern coastal communities.
