Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico: Pink Lakes, El Faro, and Playa Sucia

Cabo Rojo is well known to Puerto Ricans, but isn’t often visited by tourists from outside of the island. Despite being off the beaten path, it’s well worth the trip. Located in the southwest corner of la Isla del Encanto, you’ll find Cabo Rojo and its Wildlife Refuge. This area is packed with beautiful beaches, incredible history, and a pink lake (Las Salinas). While living in Boquerón, visiting this lesser-known refuge quickly became one of our favorite day-trips on the island.
