We recently moved to Puerto Rico to retire early and try our luck in the vacation rental industry. Behind our home is a scenic path known as the Paseo de Piñones.
Paseo de piñones is an 11-kilometer trail mostly on boardwalk and beach that is mostly level. Although it seems deceptively easy, sand pits and obstacles make for an exciting adventure. We like to think of it as a beach bike adventure. For us, some of the best times to go are during sunrise or sunset. The view and atmosphere are spectacular.
The Paseo begins at the beginning of PR-187. As soon as you go over the Boca de Congrejos bridge off to the left there is a sign that says welcome to Loiza. Turn left in here and you will find a bunch of Kiosk and restaurants.
Here you can enjoy local food such as pinchos of pork and chicken, empanadillas of lobster, crab, chicken, and beef, bacalaitos, alcapurria's and all kinds of seafood.
The trail will take you through a variety of scenic overlooks and exotic beaches and more kiosks. Around kilometer 11 the trail ends and you can continue on the off-road trail. If you're in a car this is for another adventure that we will soon blog about.
If you're in Puerto Rico we encourage you to walk or bike this short trail and partake in this cultural experience!
