El Tuque, Public beach in Ponce, Puerto Rico

El Tuque extends for half a mile along the southern coast with golden sand and clear waters suitable for swimming and water activities.

The Puerto Rican government transformed this coastal area into a seaside resort during the mid-1960s as part of a family recreation initiative.

The beach complex incorporates multiple recreational facilities, including Olympic-sized pools and traditional Puerto Rican food establishments serving fresh seafood.

Visitors find essential amenities such as restrooms, showers, lifeguard stations, picnic areas, and a large parking lot near the shore entrance.

The location features a speedway park with a 1.52-mile circuit track and sections for drag racing adjacent to the beach complex.

Location: Puerto Rico
