On our first trip to Puerto Rico, we rode on the longest zipline in America and the third longest in the world. For all of you adrenaline junkies, this is a MUST visit spot. Also, keep in mind that this is hidden in the mountains of Puerto Rico so the drive will be difficult!
ATV'ing through the rainforest was one of the most exhilarating yet beautiful things we've done together. We also got to hop in the river at a point too. Way too much fun to not recommend!
On our second trip to Puerto Rico, our first stop was the Bacardi Factory! Puerto Rico is one of the biggest rum distributors in the world and we could not miss out on the opportunity to learn more about rum production in the Caribbean and sample some incredible rums. We even took home a bottle of their "Special Reserve," which can only be purchased at Casa Bacardi. We plan to open that bottle as our first drink at home as newlyweds!
Old San Juan is a must visit on your trip to Puerto Rico! Dating back to the 16th century this is the second oldest inhabited city in the Western Hemisphere. Filled with shops, street vendors, restaurants, historic sites and nightlife, Old San Juan is bound to impress!
This iconic craft cocktail bar has been voted the Best Bar in the Caribbean and one of the 50 Best Bars in North America. If you ever find yourself in Old San Juan, this is a MUST visit.
Getting hot on a warm day? Happen to be in Old San Juan? Señor Paleta is a MUST visit! With delicious water and milk based flavors, you’re bound to have your sweet tooth satisfied!
This BRAND NEW entertainment district right at the entrance of Old San Juan, considered by many as a mini Las Vegas, is a must visit! Filled with restaurants, a zip line, an arcade, a sports bar, a movie theater and a concert venue, Distrito T-Mobile is a guaranteed fun time!
Go night kayaking and see the glowing microorganisms in the water! Out of five bioluminescent bays in the world, Puerto Rico is home to three of them. It is a magical experience that everyone should do at least once. DO NOT FORGET YOUR BUG SPRAY... you have been warned!
If you like Piña Coladasssss, and snorkeling, and crystal clear waters we HIGHLY suggest this fun excursion to Icacos Island!
About a 45-minute ferry ride away, Culebra is a municipality island of Puerto Rico that feels more laid back and relaxed than main island. In Culebra, you'll find Flamenco Beach, which is rated as one of the best beaches in the world. With its crystal clear water and its very fine sand, you are sure to leave mesmerized from this iconic spot!
This local favorite is a staple restaurant that we go to more than once every time we travel to Puerto Rico. With the most amazing seafood, great Puerto Rican food and with multiple convenient locations, it's an absolute winner!
Our favorite local pizza shop! If you want to try good artisan pizzas, look no further than Pirilos Pizza Rustica. Craig is also very fond of their garlic knots or "lazitos!"
For a quick bite to eat, and also with multiple locations, La Preña serves the most incredible stuffed arepas! Craig and I ordered WAY too much the last time we came here. It was worth it though!
