Faro Los Morrillos

Such an awesome place to explore! We drove here while staying in Rincon, PR. While all of Peurto Rico offers amazing places and breathtaking views, I think Faro Los Morrillos is something special. The drive wasn't bad to get there and it's just a short walk from the parking lot to some of the most beautiful shoreline we've seen. The lighthouse was super cool and the cliffs make for spectacular photos. we also liked the fact that the area was not crowded at all. we saw a few bicyclists and just a handful of people walking in and around the property. walked along the cliffs and enjoyed the views for a couple hours. Just amazing! Tip: Read the warning signs as the views can draw you in to a dangerous situation. Stay away from the edges and don't try to climb down, some of the edges have been known to break off and fall into the sea. Also, the winds can get pretty high at times. If you have children, I suggest keeping them very close and far back from the edge. I would love to come back someday. It is absolutely breathtaking!

As a destination wedding photographer in Puerto Rico, I often get asked to shoot other types of photography. The Nelsons wanted a family session at the lighthouse and I was happy to oblige. The 2 1/2 hr. drive was definitely worth it. One of the best sunsets you'll ever see in your life. -F

Wonderful hike with stunning ocean views. Parked right at the gate where the road is closed. Lots of potholes towards the end of the road and parking got busy around 9am, so come early to get a good spot. Local selling homemade ice cream was a treat to enjoy after a long and hot hike!

The best sunset over the cliff vibes I have ever seen! Great hideaway, took. Good 40 mins walk to get here, seems like two different ways to get up here, we went to beach before getting near lighthouse n that’s advised too since was able to enjoy the day on beach n get to see sunset n hike back to car. No vehicles allowed after gate so only walking. And the beach is full of sea weed even inside water, I was easily spooked hehe but for swimmers it must be nice to experience. Lot of wild life n crabs n weird looking stuff on beach . Well it’s their environment so we just visiting.

Visiting El Faro Los Morrillos in Cabo Rojo was an unforgettable experience! The views are absolutely breathtaking cliffs overlooking the ocean, dramatic landscapes, and a lighthouse that makes for a perfect backdrop in your photos. Be prepared for a bit of a walk to get there, but it’s totally worth it. Make sure to dress light, wear comfortable sneakers, and stay hydrated, especially on sunny days. The scenery along the way is just as beautiful as the destination, making it perfect for pictures and soaking in Puerto Rico’s natural beauty.

Hands down the highlight of my trip. Make absolutely certain to be here for sunset! Bring some food, a blanket, drinks, whatever, and get cozy and enjoy. The walk-up takes a minute, maybe a 30-minute relatively flat and easy walk to the top. There's a path that leads to playa sucio from the top as well. I would say definitely don't miss this one!

In my first time to the island we arrived very close and for the time we did not arrive. The road is about 20 minutes walking until you get there because you have to leave the car a little at the entrance, but it is a very nice place that you should not stop visiting with some beautiful cliffs.

Beautiful old lighthouse on top of cliffs with a gorgeous view. We hiked out here, because the roads were bad. Make sure to bring water. There is a gorgeous beach at the base of the hill with turquoise water. Wear your bathing suit and sunscreen.
