Directions

Balneario de Patillas, also called Playa de Patillas, is a public bathing beach on Puerto Rico's south coast, run by the Municipio de Patillas. Unlike many managed balnearios, it has no lifeguards on duty, so swimmers should keep that in mind. Nearby facilities include a playground, which makes it practical for families with children, and one place to eat or drink close to the sand.
