Landmarks
Nature enthusiasts will enjoy the Lago de Cidra, a beautiful lake perfect for kayaking, fishing, and taking in the sun in its surrounding natural formations like the Perico Falls. Stop at the lookout near the town’s entrance to enjoy an unbeatable view of this picturesque place.
Birdwatchers also come here to watch the Sabanera dove’s nesting habits. This endangered species can only be found in some areas of the Caribbean and can be identified by their blue eyes. These are the only birds in Puerto Rico with this specific characteristic.
Cidra’s charming plaza has a beautiful, functional fountain and is surrounded by various places worth visiting while you’re in the area. The Parroquia de Nuestra Señora del Carmen, built in 1813, is a cozy and exquisitely maintained worship space. To enjoy Puerto Rican art, visit the Galería Cidreña, located on the first floor of the town hall. The historic Teatro Iberia now houses the Centro Cultural Cidreño.
If you’re planning to spend the night, Cidra Country Club Inn & Villas @ Treasure Island has restaurants, a pool, sports facilities, and more.
