| Ballenas |  Dry Forest is the location of Ballenas Bay, a significant breeding site for the manatee. Its two-mile beach is the place where Hawksbill and Leatherback sea turtles nest, the endangered species.
The comparative seclusion of Ballenas Beach guarantees the wildlife safety. Guests leave their hearts here. It is the typical "Blue Lagoon" beach, with mangroves, cacti, and palms. The Caribbean waters become blue, green and turquoise and the white sand is soft as you walk.
Guánica is regarded as the place where Christopher Columbus landed during his second voyage to the New World in 1493, and it is certainly the spot where General Miles disembarked the American fleet to conquer Puerto Rico from the Spanish in 1898.
A charming beach resort with a luxury restaurant is in close proximity, as are many casual dining places offering the region’s outstanding seafood and native dishes.
