Aguas Buenas - Its flag was designed by Francisco Díaz
Rivera. Rectangular in form. There is a blue triangle with
the base at the hoist with a solitary white star, like the
national banner. Then two additional triangles appear in yellow
and green colors. These colors convey the agriculture and
tropical flora, and the commercial and industrial development of
Aguas Buenas. The blue triangle represents the Puerto Rican
nationality. When all these colors and triangles are united, they
convey and manifest friendship, hospitality, cooperation, faith,
and work of the children of this country; virtues and qualities
that distinguish and honor us all.

From <www.ngw.nl>:
"The arms are divided by the cross of Christianity, and show
in the first quarter the image of Our Lady of Mount Serrat, in
the second a Taíno indian, symbolising the original population
and the local caves, in the third a symbol for the rich
agriculture and in the fourth symbols for music and local
folklore. The round escutcheon shows the local spring that gave
the town its name."
