Leo Jay Posted June 26, 2007 #1 Share Posted June 26, 2007 I've heard that the beaches in SJ have rougher waters than other parts of the Carribbean. I'm a non-swimmer (but coordinated, in good shape, and not easily panicked), and we're thinking about visiting Isla Verde beach. Would it be a bit risky for me to hang out in shallow water (with a life vest, of course), or are the waters rough enough that you'd advise a non-swimmer to stay out of the water completely? Thanks for any feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckornuta Posted June 26, 2007 #2 Share Posted June 26, 2007 We were at Condado beach in Jan. and the waves were big mabe about 6-8 ft..My husband and nephews loved them but for me they were toostrong and would pull you pretty hard and knock you off balance easily. So it just depends what you like. With a life vest I think you would be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Sky Country Posted June 27, 2007 #5 Share Posted June 27, 2007 There are more protected areas of the beaches which have eastern exposure. Isla Verde is calmer than Condado in general. Pick your spot on the crescent and it will be comfortable without a life vest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
