Quebradillas
Home of the Pirates.
Felipe Ruiz founded this town in 1823. The name Quebradillas comes from the large number of streams found locally. This whole area is part of the karst region, which means you will find haystack-shaped hills and sinkholes.
There is a beautiful beach, Playa de Guajataca, just west of town. The beach may be seen from the overlook on Rt 2 by the Paradores. There is an old sugarcane railroad tunnel at the west side, but the water is reputed to be too rough for swimming. Other nearby fun attractions include the Panadería Legendaria (bakery).
How to go: Stay on Rt 2, west of Arecibo.
