As you leave the back of the guesthouse, and walk down our side street to the ocean, that side street ends in a boat ramp. Hurricane Maria eroded the beach around the ramp. But if you go to your left before the boat ramp, the street ends in a white wall. Along that wall is a trail and stairs that leads to Playa Positas which has beautiful wide beaches and tidal pools. This is about a two minute walk from the guesthouse. Great place to watch sunsets in the summer or whale watch in the winter. Or you can snorkel all year round waves permitting.
