An important site within indigenous Taíno culture, Cueva del Indio is home to a beautiful selection of prehistoric cave art on Puerto Rico’s Atlantic coast. Admire over 80 pre-Columbian indigenous petroglyphs made on the cave’s limestone walls between 1200 and 1500 A.D., and learn more about the island’s indigenous cultures. The scenic hike to the cave also boasts pretty coastal views and impressive grassy cliffs. You might want to join a tour that departs from San Juan—it's a great way combine your visit to the cave with other attractions in the area, such as the Cueva Ventana and the Arecibo Observatory.
