THE TOWN
Arecibo is a city and municipality on the northern coast of Puerto Rico, on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, located north of Utuado and Ciales; east of Hatillo; and west of Barceloneta and Florida. It is about 50 miles west of San Juan, the capital city.
This municipality is just over an hour from the SJU airport and is worth the trip. Arecibo's landscape and panoramic views are characterized by caves, sinkholes, and limestone hills called mogotes. Arecibo, the largest municipality, is divided into 19 sectors that cross the unique karst region in the north.
The incredible diversity of Arecibo's terrain means that visitors can enjoy nearby beaches, caves, mountains, and more. The Río Grande de Arecibo and the Río Tanamá, two of the most important rivers in Puerto Rico, cross the municipality. Additionally, one of the island's main lakes, Lago Dos Bocas, borders the south side of the town. Some of the most popular beaches in the area include Hallows and La Poza del Obispo.
The Cambalache Forest Park is home to more than 20 species of birds and more than a dozen caves. There is also the Río Abajo State Forest, a natural space that is home to one of the most famous caves in Arecibo, Los Chorros and Cueva del Indio.
The town's rich Spanish heritage can be seen in the impressive monuments displayed throughout the municipality. The current town hall served as a prison in the 17th century, when it was mostly occupied by revolutionaries.
The Punta Los Morrillos lighthouse was built by the Spanish government and is now a historical park. Casa Ulanga was originally the residence of a high-ranking Spaniard, but has since served as a bank, store, town hall, hospital and jail, and now functions as the Arecibo Cultural Center.
In Arecibo, you will also find the Auto Cine Santana, Puerto Rico's only drive-in movie theater, established in 1957.
FOOD SCENE
Arecibo's food scene promises an enchanting culinary experience, with a focus on fresh seafood, refreshing drinks and the added bonus of stunning views that make your meal a true feast for the senses. The most famous restaurant in Arecibo is called Salitre Mesón Costero, a full-service restaurant overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. It's known for serving fresh, locally caught seafood in dishes like paellas, lobster, stuffed mofongo, and more.
This coastal town is also known for its ceti fish dishes. Restaurants like El Guayabo and Guisito Criollo serve empanadas and mofongo filled with this tiny transparent fish.
If you prefer a delicious variety of meats, be sure to visit Bocata Smokehouse, where you can enjoy a varied selection of smoked meats while overlooking the beach. And don't miss the opportunity to end your day at W Bar and enjoy one of their delicious cocktails or explore their extensive whiskey menu with more than 85 labels.
