Ocean Park Beach is a favorite spot for locals in San Juan and gaining popularity among tourists. The young locals like to refer to it as “Ocean”. The wide mile-long beach is framed by a few shaded spots with palm trees along the way, residential condominiums, private residences, vacation rentals, restaurants, and a few boutique hotels, small inns, and guesthouses.
Ocean Park has a very casual, low-key vibe. Even during the high tourist season, you will find the beach to be pretty relaxed and uncrowded. Ocean Park Beach is on the Atlantic Ocean side featuring pretty blues from deep navy blues to aquamarine. The sand is golden, soft, and light.
During the weekday mornings, the scene is relaxed and uncrowded perfect for a relaxing long walk. During the summer months and weekends, it gets much busier. If you dislike crowded spaces, avoid visiting on holiday weekends.
Public transportation is not regular, but you can get an Uber or taxi in minutes. You can walk to restaurants, mini markets, fast foods and enjoy the city. You will be staying at a gated housing area, which is very safe and tranquil.
