The Northeast Ecological Corridor is a sprawling protected area along Fajardo's coast, encompassing diverse ecosystems such as pristine beaches, dry forests, and coastal wetlands. Visitors can hike trails through the reserve, spot native birds and marine life, and enjoy secluded beaches like Playa Escondida. Its designation as a nature reserve ensures a tranquil experience away from developed areas, making it a prime spot for hiking, birdwatching, and connecting with Puerto Rico's natural heritage.
