Above is a small part of the Montes Oscuro , a protected, Reserve but privately owned. You can see this from the highway just after you come down the mountains from San Juan going to the South Coast.

Below: Ruins just East of Santa Isabel on the south coast, off rd # 3. Interesting stop if you're driving from Patillas to the hot springs and Parador in Coamo or to the city of Ponce. Nice Guest house called 'Caribe Playa', on the beach, East of Patillas. Or 'Playa Emajagua' Guest House East of Maunabo. The Salinas Marina is a nice place to stay and there is a nice clean hotel in Guayama. A variety of places to stay in Ponce. .
