Balneario El Escambrón is a 30 minutes walk from Old San Juan also with easy transportation through taxis and is one of the most crowded beaches in San Juan. The shallow waters and lifeguard protection on the beach are ideal for young swimmers and also give them a chance for guided snorkeling.
It is the best public beach in the metro area of Puerto Rico, distinctly famous for its snorkel, scuba dive, and 17th-century Spanish fort which is most visited by tourists. The coast is also lined up with food stands majorly of the local cuisine.
