This place is great for having a peaceful and immersive stroll through a small but rich and unique forest. The place is not just great for enjoying the natural scenery, but also to experience "an open-air classroom", as stated in one of the many informative cards that provide brief explanations of selected flora and fauna that call this forest home. If you want to go deeper you can take advantage of the complementary virtual tour. I highly recommend this place and look forward to coming back.

This was a fun and well kept place to walk around in the shade of the dense trees on the boardwalk. The trees were interesting. Herd a few frogs and birds and saw a couple of iguanas. Climbed the tower to look around. Couldn’t see much but we did it! You don’t need tickets. It is free.

Quiet place to recharge or simply get away from the city. Entrance is free but donations are welcome.

It was a neat walk. Not very large. I got to see pretty much all of it in about 45 minutes.

Informative, refreshing. Boardwalks and tower add a unique perspective as to how much forest has been lost to development.

Very cool and deceptively large natural forest in the middle of Palmas del Mar community. Worth visiting! Great for picnic, yoga, nature lovers and more.

Short walk on a raised platform through the forest. The tower would hypothetically have great views, but the trees have grown higher than the tower, so no views. Be warned, this is inside a gated community so it may be a challenge to access.

Great little park with an interesting walk through a unique wetland. Informative signage along the way taught us Minnesotans about the plants and animals. Well done and worth our time!

Beautiful tropical Park with paved road and parking space! There is a security guard to pass in order to get to the park as if it is only for private members but it is opened for public. You can just pass through the security entrance with the car and get to the park.

This is a wonderful nature walk. It is well maintained and has a board walk that you can do in less than an hour unless you want to take the time to look closely to trees and surrounding nature. We all loved it. Sings in English and Spanish and there are restrooms.

This was a nice easy stop on our way back from Ponce. Close to the highway. It is inside of a gated community. Beautiful trees. Boardwalk takes you through the deep forest. Lizards abound. Recommend bug spray. Good for a leg stretch. Free and plenty of parking. Only closed when the water gets too high. Otherwise always open.

This is a short nature walk, but it was mostly shaded to keep you cool and there were no mosquitoes! Definitely a nice place to take the kiddos for a little adventure.

It was surprising to find such a place in Palmas del Mar. It has a trail with a virtual tour following an app. Very interesting. Recommend wearing long pants and long sleeve shirts. It is very humid once one enter the forest.

A wonderful conservation nature area. Lots of wildlife to see. The tower gets you above the canopy. The boardwalk allowed lots of closeup time. I plan to return near sunset to possibly see more birds.

A free 51-acre swamp forest in Palmas del Mar, Humacao, Puerto Rico. Its a nature walk through the Pterocaprus Forest (or El Bosque de Pterocarpusthrough a wooded boardwalk. There are bilingual educational signs about the flora and fauna of the area all along the walkway. Its worth the visit.

This forest walk is a gem in Palmas del Mar. Car parking is slightly hidden behind the big church and next to the property administration buildings, but the signs are easy to follow. The trail starts as a concrete path and continues into the forest swamp area on a raised boardwalk. The boardwalk is extensive, maybe 3/4 of a mile long, and has informative signs about the animals and ecosystem along the way. We went in the early afternoon and saw iguanas, lots of lizards, turtles, and several birds including a beautiful large white crane. Importantly there are no mosquitoes, which is a feature of this type of forest. The trail is totally shaded by the forest and has a few rest areas. This is a great short excursion out of the sun for a family and would be stroller friendly.

A surprise escape amongst the boats in the Marina and Golfing. Bird watching and nature experience in style. Platform walkways laid out over the marsh and ground so you never have a wrong step. Did I mention the huge iguanas & observation deck 3 stories tall.
