      La Mina falls, is located in El Yunque rainforest near Luquillo. The turn off from the main road is a little confusing so pay attention to signs and your directions. The restaurants that are located in the park are expensive and only average tasting. I would eat before you come to the park or bring your lunch. The parking at La Mina falls is very crowded, we got there about 12:30 on a Thursday and had a little bit of a hard time finding a place to park. There is a fruit stand right at the start of the trail. The trail is paved the whole way to the falls and the hike is pretty low key. Our 8 year old had no problem with this hike. The waterfall is crowded but it didn't bother us. There is natural waterslide and it is located somewhere in the same area of the falls there is a turn off before getting to the falls so do your research so you can do both on the same day. There are also places you can zipline on the way into the park. We went to Luquillo and walked along the kiosks and didn't find them to be all that great but we did like the beach behind them. There are a few jet skis that you can rent by the hour.

      One thing to note is how busy the falls can get. Go early if you want privacy!! Also the water was fairly cold when we went but the water was still packed with people swimming. The real gems on this hike are if you keep going past the waterfall there are a couple swimming areas that no one uses because they are all at the falls. The hike itself is on the easier side. The path does get slippery because its a concrete path and it rains on and off.

      I covered most of this in a review of El Yunque but the falls deserve their own review. We hiked in from the top. The trail down is uneven and slippery as others have mentioned. We also encountered some large groups along the trail and since it is quite narrow in places, it's kind of awkward letting them pass. There are some pretty cool spots on the way down for photos and such as well as some other " pools" along the way that you could swim in. I must admit that Sarah and I were totally unprepared, no swimwear, didn't really wear the right shoes for the hike, but hey, that's part of the adventure. We arrived at the falls and realized that people were swimming and it looked like great fun ( it is). Not to be outdone after sitting on the rocks and enjoying the view for a while, Sarah just jumped in, clothes and all. Well, I couldn't be left out so I stripped down to my shorts and followed. The water is cold but it was great fun. I must admit that the hike back out (all up hill) wasn't the most pleasant in soaking wet clothes but it was all well worth it! So, I guess my advice is go but take swimwear and wear hiking shoes. Have fun!

      Beautiful waterfall at end. Many people told us that it was similar to waterfalls experienced in Hawaii.

      Highly recommend this trail! Wear sneakers and go past the big tree trail to palo Colorado info area. This is the other way to la Mina falls and it's less crowded. Wear sneakers and be warned it is all uphill on the way back, you must be in average shape at a minimum for this trail. It's all paved in concrete surprisingly.

      La Mina was well worth it. The hike doesn't take too long--maybe about 25 minutes and once you get there it's beautiful. The water was cold but it's such an amazing experience so bring your bathing suit and go in!

      We took the 45 minute or so drive from San Juan. It was worth it. We were lucky that we had a U.S. Military pass from the National Park Service = FREE! We walked around at the visitors center-interesting and staff helpful. Then we drove up to La Mina Fall's parking area. The hike isn't very strenuous, but you can't be in poor health either. The Falls-fabulous. There is a bridge right in front of them. We brought our bathing suits and carefully walked/crawled over to the water and got in. Cold, 60-65 degrees. It was awesome to be under the water cascading down on us. A great opportunity to take some pictures. It was well worth the drive and walk! Check out the gift shop and the restaurant at the Welcome Center.

      The walk is challenging with a narrow path and steep stairs. Be sure to wear hiking or tennis shoes as the trail is narrow,steep, slippery and has stairs. Too many people as the tour buses stop here and they all recommend bathing suits and towels. The hike down and back up is just short of a mile. So be prepared.

      Definitely get in the water, and definitely bring something to wear or a towel for when you get out. You won't be the only one. It is a bit chilly and the current is deceptively strong, but how often can you get that close to a waterfall? This is a lovely sight
