Playa Saturno (English: Saturn Beach) is the fourth studio album by Puerto Rican singer Rauw Alejandro, released on July 7, 2023, by Sony Music Latin and Duars Entertainment. It was introduced as a spin-off, and released nearly 7 months after his third studio album Saturno (2022). Alejandro began working on the album during his Saturno World Tour, immersing himself from the studio into the cosmic world he created, resulting in this 14-track project. While taking on a different sonic approach from its prequel, the record covers a variety of topics from love and heartbreak, to having fun and partying.
Playa Saturno debuted at number 29 on the US Billboard 200, including number 3 on the Latin Rhythm Albums and number 4 on the Top Latin Albums chart with over 21,000 album-equivalent units.
