Great walk in the rainforest even if you already visited El Yunque (or if you couldn't get tickets).
Walk 15 minutes through the rainforest and reach a river bed that is shallow but also has an area to swim in that's deeper. Recommend water shoes or sandals.

The Wyndham Resort has a fabulous hotel beach.
The secret to accessing it is to drive up and tell the the guard at the gate that you are coming to the restaurant or for the golf shop etc.
Then drive all the way down and turn left. You have the option of parking in the garage (if you are going to dinner for example) or you can continue on and park for free on the lawn all the way at the end of the road. The beach is across the lane.
Walk left to take a scenic walk on the beach (mostly deserted) or walk right towards the hotel and enjoy a drink at one of their two beach bars.
