The ruins of the Faro of the Punta Borinquen
These ruins are a historical site dating back to 1889 when the lighthouse was built by the Spanish government. Due to erosion and a big earthquake during 1918 followed by a giant wave, the structure was badly damaged and a replacement lighthouse was constructed in 1920.
Today, these ruins are part of the rich culture and history of the island. If you like history, you should definitely visit these ruins and feel transported to the past.
If you go to the side of the ruins, you will find a path that leads you to the beach and some amazing scenery. You can walk on the rocks and admire the beauty of nature, enjoy the sounds of the crashing waves and see how many years of erosion can form incredible shapes in the limestone.

Also, we visited Twyford BBQ in Isabela. This is by far one of the best BBQ places we have ever visited! Delicious food and great service make this place a must-visit restaurant in the area, Ahh and the view is spectacular!
