  • Today we visit the town of Corozal, in the north central region of Puerto Rico. It’s a peaceful, even quiet, town that’s not laden with tourist attractions, old Spanish forts or turquoise beaches. It has none of that! But what it does have is exuberant vegetation, wonderful vistas and a natural charm that comes natural to Puerto Rico’s mountain towns.People from Corozal are called “plataneros”, because of the abundance of “plantain” crops in the area. It’s also Puerto Rico’s volleyball capitol and the place where the sport made its initial inroads on the Island.
    Finally, we visited its beautiful Sacred Family Parish, Franklin Delano Roosevelt Square, City Hall, the Barber Shop Museum, Casa Loydí, the Mavilla Bridge and Monte Choca State Park.

    We spent 7 days and nights in Corozal last month (on a finca) and absolutely loved our time there!! This was our 3rd trip there from mainland US~ each time we visit a different area of the beautiful island! 💜 your videos!

    My memory of Corozal is some horseback riding that we did with a guy named Rafael Torres with PR4Less Tours. He took us horseback riding on trails, in rivers, and on the roads. The roads made it feel real PR style, since you often see that while in PR. The roads was the scary part, since you feel like the horses are gonna slip and fall.
    After watching several of your videos, I thought for sure you were Catholic, since the Catholic churches are always featured in your videos when visiting these towns.

      I always visit the Catholic temples because Puerto Rico has a Catholic heritage. And,believe it or not, there are tourists that go around the world visiting old churches.
      Case in point: Rome, Seville, Toledo, Segovia, etc.

      It stems from our Spanish heritage. The Spanish, in turn, inherited it from Rome.

    You forgot to go to El Rancho, and Muñeco.

      Thank you for your your suggestions. I didn’t forget el muñeco. I just didn’t know about it. That said, I was just watching a TH-cam video about it and it looks like it’s out in the middle of nowhere. As for el Rancho, we generally don’t cover commercial concerns. Thanks again.
