Puerto Rico is an island of natural beauty that has to be explored! A US Commonwealth since 1952, it shares the mainland’s language, currency & immigration system. However, its great diversity of landscape, natural phenomena and the rich Spanish, African and Taino Indian heritage offers visitors a completely contrasting holiday experience.
The capital, San Juan, is the first port of call with great value shopping for traditional and designer goods. Day and night time entertainment abounds in the many local & sophisticated bars and restaurants with salsa dancing & the casino scene being popular pastimes. In contrast, the walled city of Old San Juan is a cultural haven with its blue cobbled streets, Spanish colonial architecture, museums, churches & fortresses. Hundreds of miles of white sandy beaches embrace the uplands of the Cordillera mountain range leading into the lush, tropical vegetation of El Yunque rainforest. The mountain climate offers perfect conditions for hiking and soft adventure sports. The River Camuy’s network of caves are an explorer’s paradise. The island also offers sailing, game fishing, diving, snorkelling, surfing, horseriding and 23 golf courses. Alternatively, go whale watching, visit one of Puerto Rico’s three bioluminscent bays or just relax and watch the sunset!
