Toro Negro State Forest
I recommend wearing good hiking shoes and bringing a light jacket even if it's warm. The trails can get slippery and it can cool down in the higher elevations after noon.
My advice is to bring a packed lunch and plenty of water. There aren't many food options around, and it's way more fun to take a break in nature than hunt for a café
I suggest starting your day at Toro Negro as early as 8 AM to avoid crowds and enjoy the serene beauty of the forest. Plus, the morning light makes for great photos!
Arecibo Lighthouse and Historical Park
Don't skip out on the gift shop! I found some cool local crafts there that were much cheaper than at touristy spots. My advice is to check it out before you leave the park!
i'd say get there by 10 am to avoid the crowds and the heat—trust me, the sun can be brutal. plus, it’s a great time for those beautiful morning pictures!
