The beach is beautiful and clean, however something that many people do not talk about is the fact that there are signs EVERYWHERE on the beach saying NOT to swim in the water. It is very dangerous! When I was at the beach today, the waves were so high that they came to the sand area by the beach chairs. Please keep in mind that we weren’t even close to the water and yet, the water came to us. We watched a guy standing near the water get pulled in due to the strong currents and thankfully he was a good swimmer so he was okay. Please do not take the risk of going in or near the water. This beach is just for tanning or vibes, maybe a picnic but it’s beautiful. 😊
The fresh breeze winds of the open seas, the relaxing sounds of the ocean waves hitting the shore and turn around to see an assortment of hotels and restaurants just waiting to be experienced.
It's an over all clean and comfortable beach anyone can come out to enjoy.
Pretty good spot on the island. Plan to take your beach chairs and umbrellas as you will be charged $5 for the chairs and $15 for the umbrella to rent while on the beach. Might not seem significant but will add up if going with a large group
Atlantic Beach in Puerto Rico is the perfect blend of natural beauty and relaxed vibes, making it an absolute must-visit for beach lovers. Nestled near the heart of San Juan, it offers a serene escape with the convenience of nearby restaurants, bars, and attractions.
The first thing you’ll notice is the soft, golden sand that stretches along the coastline, meeting the crystal-clear waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The beach is wide enough to find your own little slice of paradise, whether you want to sunbathe, stroll along the shore, or simply sit back and listen to the waves.
The water is inviting, with a mix of gentle waves and calm areas perfect for swimming or wading. It’s also a great spot for more adventurous activities like paddleboarding or bodyboarding. Don’t forget your camera, because the stunning views of the ocean meeting the horizon are postcard-worthy.
What sets Atlantic Beach apart is its lively yet laid-back atmosphere. On weekdays, it’s a peaceful retreat, but on weekends, it comes alive with locals and tourists enjoying the sun, music, and beachside fun. Nearby food vendors and bars add to the experience, offering everything from refreshing mojitos to tasty Puerto Rican snacks.
While amenities like showers and restrooms are limited, the beach's proximity to San Juan means you’re never far from what you need. Parking can be tricky during busy times, so arriving early is a good idea.
Atlantic Beach is more than just a spot to catch some sun—it’s a place to relax, recharge, and connect with the natural beauty of Puerto Rico. Whether you’re looking for a quiet morning by the water or a lively afternoon with friends, this beach has something for everyone. Highly recommended for your island getaway!
