Coffin Island

At weekends a ferry carries visitors from the pier at La Guancha on the Ponce waterfront to Coffin Island, a tiny uninhabited island five miles south of the city, where there are pristine beaches and a marked snorkelling trail. Visitors can also explore the 19th century Caja de Muerto Lighthouse that has been restored and houses a museum.

Transport: Scheduled ferries run from La Guancha, Ponce, on Saturdays and Sundays between 9am and 5pm.
