Poza del Obispo

Poza del Obispo, also called Obispo Beach, is a public balneario in Arecibo run by the Municipio de Arecibo. It is a managed bathing beach, though it has no lifeguards on duty, so swimmers are on their own in the water. A single parking area sits close by, and no other facilities are mapped nearby, which makes this a simple, lightly equipped municipal beach.
