El Tuque

El Tuque is a beach and family recreational and tourist complex in the Punta Cucharas sector of Barrio Canas in Ponce, Puerto Rico.

[10] About a decade later, in 1996, the United States Army Corps of Engineers picked up the El Tuque project again for purposes of re-furbishing the beach with new sand.

The investors spent $16 million to develop the area into the El Tuque Beach Entertainment Center.

Some of activities of the park were hiking, swimming, boating, fishing, whitewater paddling, snorkeling, and scuba diving.

A nearby Holiday Inn hotel that had opened a few years earlier, provides additional lodging facilities for beach-goers.
