Update on Puerto Rico Coastal Oil Spill

We have received several messages from people who are concerned about the recent news of an oil spill on the Southwest coast of Puerto Rico. Let us assure you that the spill has been contained.  Copamarina's beaches and waterfront were not affected in any way.  The cleanup of other locations is nearly complete, however none are adjacent to the resort.

The U.S. Coast Guard's Public Affairs office issued the following statement on Sunday, September 2:

"The Puerto Rico Department of Natural Resources has reopened the beaches of Playa Santa, Caña Gorda, CopaMarina, Jaboncillo and Cayos de la Parguera [which will] be opened Sunday.  The beaches of Playita Rosada and Cayo Mata La Gata were opened Saturday.
No reports of wildlife being affected by the oil product have been received and wildlife experts from the Puerto Rico Department of Natural and Environmental Resources and U.S. Fish and wildlife continue to monitor the situation."

We invite you to view our live webcam to see that our beautiful beach is as unspoiled and clean as ever. http://www.copamarina.com/photos/webcam.cfm
