The other day we decided to take a spur of the moment day trip to Cabo Rojo to see Playa Buye, a favorite beach in Puerto Rico. We had heard of its splendid white sands and turquoise waters and couldn’t wait to see it for ourselves.

Playa Buye

This beach didn’t disappoint. The waters were calm, warm and serene and the beach was long and sandy. I loved the brightly painted houses and shops right on the water as well as some pretty cool graffiti art. This is a popular beach and it was summertime which means a lot more people. There were lots of stereos and people hanging out drinking from their coolers. I would recommend avoiding weekends in the summer if at all possible or you will be unlikely to find parking or a spot on the beach. Farther down the way near a little coconut cove it was much more peaceful and you could even see a fisherman wading out into the flat seas. I would love to try snorkeling there as well some time! The sun was intense, but it made for gorgeous photos. Check it out.
