Things To Do in PR
Barrachina - the inventors of the Pina Colada?/Los que inventaron la Pina Colada?
One of two "original" Pina Coladas spots... the National PR Drink. MUST try... a Pina colada in PR is like NOTHING you've had ANYWHERE else. Promise. That's why we are listing this one FIRST. Were they really the first ones that came up with it? or was it at the hotel up the street? Who cares! just drink it! **Uno de dos sitios que dicen haber inventado la Pina Colada, bebida nacional de Puerto Rico. DEBEN tomarse una en su visita pues no es igual que en ningun otro sitio del mundo. Por eso la pusimos primero en la lista. Es verdad que ellos fueron los primeros en inventarla? o fue el hotel que esta mas alla? Que importa! solo bebanse una!

Bahía Bioluminiscente de La Parguera
This place is nothing short of AWESOME... if you have time in PR definitely come here. It is the 2nd best one of the 5 around the world (3 in PR). It is 2 or so hours from San Juan (traffic getting out of town can suck sometimes). Call them and see if they'd arrange transportation. They are really flexible.
Laguna Grande BioBay Boat Tour
This is ONE of the SEVEN Bio-luminescent bays in the WORLD! the 3 in PR are the brightest and most prominent of all. This is a Kayak Tour. No swimming allowed. 1hr drive from San Juan.
Arecibo Observatory
This is a little out of the way west from San Juan. However, it really is amazing to experience it. Literally in the middle of nowhere. Bonus for those that are also 007 movie or space geeks.
Caguana - Taino Stonehedge
If you've decided to go to the observatory... might as well visit this very unique area where Tainos native Puerto Ricans seemed to play and worship. Si decidio ir al observatorio.... este esta cerquita ... ya que esta en el area seria bueno visitar donde los Tainos nativos en Puerto Rico parecen haber usado para jugar y adorar.
