Things To Do
San Juan National Historic Site
The San Juan National Historic Site preserves the history of the island, told through Castillo San Felipe del Morro, Castillo San Cristóbal, Fuerte San Juan de la Cruz (El Cañuelo), the San Juan Gate, and most of the city walls. Paseo del Morro is a boardwalk that borders the outer edge of Old San Juan's imposing Castillo San Felipe del Morro. One one side, you'll be flanked by the fort's massive outer walls and on the other side, you'll walk next to the Bay of San Juan. Once you reach the famous Gate of San Juan, a giant doorway that gives access to the inside of the city walls, the Paseo del Morro becomes one with the Paseo de la Princesa.
Capitol of Puerto Rico
Puerto Rico's Capital building is located at the entrance to the historic Old San Juan area. If you start your walk here you can make your way to the forts along the ocean.
El Yunque National Forest
You can visit for a hike on one of its many trails, bathe in natural pools beneath waterfalls, or relax and enjoy the scenery. El Yunque is the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Forest Service. Reserve your visit in advance through www.recreation.gov/.
Piñones
A picturesque ocean drive from Carolina to Loíza where you can enjoy local dining experiences and practice what Puerto Ricans call chinchorreo. Sample delicious specialties while you hop from food stand to food stand and go back and forth to the beach. Enjoy the peaceful waves at La Pocita or Vacía Talega, two secluded beaches where you can go swimming or soak in the sun.
Toro Verde Adventure Park
Toro Verde Adventure Park is located in the town of Orocovis, about an hour and 45 minutes from San Juan and hidden between rolling mountains covered in dense forest. The area boasts some of the most breathtaking mountain views on the Island, which you’ll see flying beneath you, if you choose to go ziplining. Since the park opened in 2009, its network of ziplines and suspension bridges has steadily expanded, and now includes two enormous ziplines, The Beast at nearly 1.5 kilometers and The Monster, the second longest zipline in the world, at 2.5 kilometers.
