Beach Day Tours in Fajardo

Cayo Icacos is an uninhabited sandbar, which is exactly why a beach day here feels different from any resort strand. There are no kiosks, no loungers and no road, only powder-white sand, shallow turquoise shallows and whatever shade you bring. A beach day tour anchors off the cay and ferries you ashore so you can wade out across the sandbar, swim in waist-deep water and walk the empty shoreline until the boats head back in the afternoon.

Pack everything you need before you board: water, snacks, sun protection and a towel, since nothing is sold on the cay. Most beach day trips include time to snorkel the nearby reef as well, so it is easy to mix swimming and reef time in a single morning. Calm winter mornings give the flattest water and the widest exposed sand. The tours below give you the cay beach experience with transport sorted from Fajardo.
