Arecibo is a town on the scenic northern coast of Puerto Rico; a part of the world which enjoys steady hot temperatures throughout the year. It's renowned for the world famous Arecibo Observatory. Arecibo is also home to some sublime natural wonders; there's the magnificent caves known as La Cueva del Indio, and some beautiful beaches like La Poza, where you'll find the iconic Arecibo Lighthouse. Puerto Rico isn't a particularly big island, making it easily navigable for those who take advantage of car hire in Arecibo.
Puerto Ricco's northern coast is an explorer's paradise, meaning that hiring a car in Arecibo is always popular. In Arecibo itself you'll love the charming colonial architecture, epitomised in the Church of Saint Phillip the Apostle, and the City Hall. Arecibo Lighthouse and La Poza Beach provide a wonderful seaside aspect to the town. If you're here for the observatory, you'll need to rent a car in Arecibo and take the PR-635 south. The observatory boasts the largest radio telescope in the world. Arecibo isn't short of natural wonders either: La Cueva del Indio is a short drive east via the PR-681, and Cueva Ventana (Window Cave) is due south on the PR-10.
