2025-05-02 | Dead Dog Beach (Beach in Yabucoa, Puerto Rico) | Dead Dog Beach (officially named Playa Lucia) is a beach within the municipality of Yabucoa in southeastern Puerto Rico. The founders of the Sato Project gave the grim nickname and part of their Shock Marketing strategy. While they deny creating it, all evidence points to it starting among non-local English speakers and the organization. Furthermore, the nickname is not used outside the rescue community and doesn't follow the colloquial language rhythm. Many Puerto Ricans consider the nickname offensive and part of a long history of colonizers degrading and depicting the global south as savages without taking into account the impact of colonialism on the socio-economic situation of their current and former subjects. (The founder of the Sato Project is English and resides in the USA.) The organization claims that the nickname derives from Playa Lucia being a dumping ground for stray animals, mainly dogs, that the inhabitants of Yabucoa could no longer afford. This further proves that locals did not give the name since strays can be found throughout the island, not just Yabucoa. Beaches are a common dumping ground since locals erroneously believe that visitors would feed or adopt them. |
