Dive-site story
Situated along the western coast of Puerto Rico off Rincón, Walk in the Park covers low-profile spur-and-groove coral formations interspersed with wide sand channels. Caribbean reef inhabitants drift across boulder and star coral heads, while nurse sharks frequently rest beneath undercut ledges. The site offers relaxed navigation during the calmer summer season when northwest Atlantic swells fade.
