Laws & Policies

Firearms: As of February 22, 2010, a new federal law allows people who can legally possess firearms under applicable federal, state, and local laws, to legally possess firearms in this park. It is the responsibility of visitors to understand and comply with all applicable state, local, and federal firearms laws before entering this park. As a starting point, please visit our state’s website at http://www.justicia.gobierno.pr/

Federal law also prohibits firearms in the fortifications and facilities in this park.

Respect our heritage. Even though you may see where others have defaced historic structures with writing or carving, don't add to this hideous display.

If you observe this or any other illegal activity, inform a ranger. Violations of park regulations carry penalties of up to $5,000 and/or up to 6 months in prison.

You may encounter rangers or volunteers along the way. Please follow their instructions.
