Drinks & Nightlife

The local watering hole. If you like to be where the locals are, this spot is for you. A very casual local hangout that serves cheap drinks and if you need any convenience store items in a pinch (ice, cigarettes, Advil, etc.) you can purchase them here. The owner, Orlan, is a very knowledgable bar tender and makes great conversation. If you're curious about any secret spots or recommendations on what to do, he's a great resource.

This is a new bar on the backside of Suenos del Mar in Las Croabas. The band plays on Thursday-Saturday and Salsa dancing is the dance of the night. There is a full bar, lots of atmosphere and a very nice breeze.

This is a good place to spend the day at the beach, eating local food and shopping for locally made arts and crafts. Then after dark, the bars all open and many of them have live music.

Parks & Nature

This is a great beach to spend the day with friends and/or family. The sea is calm and shallow, and there are many trees if you need to take a break from the sun. We recommend packing a cooler with food and drinks and making a day of it. Perfect spot for paddle boarding. If you walk 10 mins to the west you will find the "Secret Beach" which is very nice. Free parking is located on the street.

Are you psychically fit and up for a challenge? Turn your adventure up to 11 with this climbing/caving adventure tour. You will get dirty. You will get wet. You will be climbing in dark caves. But it is an adventure like no other and you will see some very cool things. While very fun, and no climbing/spelunking experience is necessary, please note this is a psychically challenging adventure tour that does require some balance and endurance. If you're up to it, we promise you will not be disappointed.

Icacos is the best beach near Las Croabas but you must take a water taxi to get there. East Coast Water taxis is who we recommend. Esther and Capt Lucas can accommodate up to 8 passengers at a time and they located down at the pier in Las Croabas. Call them at 787-518-8337. Tell them you are a guest of Villa Turquesa.

Excellent dive shop with a fantastic crew. Particularly good is you are new to diving or would like to get your certification while in Puerto Rico, but also great for experienced divers. They are environmentally conscience and truly care about the preserving the reefs. Can't recommend them enough.

Going out to Icacos island is a MUST when visiting Puerto Rico, and Captain Lucas and his crew are the best people to take you out there. Icacos features a truly world class beach and is just a short boat ride away. East Coast Water Taxi will take you out there, point out spots good for snorkeling/other recommendations, and will set up an umbrella for you. You can even request to have a cooler with lunch packed for you.
