Hike to Arbol Solitario
Salinas, Puerto Rico
5.0
1 mi
/ 600 ft gain
About halfway between Cayey and Ponce, you will see a runaway truck ramp on the north side of the highway. The best place to park for this hike is just right on the shoulder of the road (Make sure you aren't blocking the truck ramp or you risk getting a ticket). Keep in mind if you are coming from the Ponce direction, you need to flip a quick U-turn shortly after you see the ramp to get going i...
Cañon San Cristobal
Aibonito, Puerto Rico
4 mi
/ 1000 ft gain
The hike from one end of Cañon San Cristobal to the other is arguably the most epic in Puerto Rico. Descend a thousand feet into a turquoise swimming hole, climb up a waterfall and find yourself in a valley so perfect it doesn't seem real. Climb up another waterfall, hike about a mile and you'll come to 'La Niebla': the largest waterfall on the island, 300 feet of water cascading down the side ...

0.2 mi

If you're heading out of Adjuntas, take Route 10 N and make a right onto Route 123 N, follow that until you can make a left onto Route 123 S. Go South on Route 123, then turn right onto Route 522 (follow the signs for Parador Sotomeyer). When you get there, go to the left. The road will make several 'V's" but just stay on the main road. At one of the V’s, you’ll notice a bridge to your left. Us...

This is an awesome place to check out if spending some time near San Juan. This castle is located on the far side of Old San Juan, offering awesome views of the ocean and surrounding areas.
It costs $7 USD (for adults) to enter, and can be paid at the main entrance when you arrive. This also acts as a pass to other local castles operated by the National Parks Service (keep your receipt for pro...
Stroll through Old San Juan
San Juan, Puerto Rico
5.0
*Puerto Rico’s history is very interesting. Exploring Old San Juan is fun, informative, and full of culture.
*There are unlimited options for food in Old San Juan, I recommend trying Mofongo, which is made from a plantain. Find a rooftop bar to take it all in (and maybe have a mojito or two!).
*Take pictures of the buildings and streets. It’s hard to find colors like this anywhere else in A...
Catch A Sunset at Escambron Beach
San Juan, Puerto Rico
4.0
I took my first cruise earlier this year and Puerto Rico was one of the stops. This beautiful beach is only a 33 minute walk from the cruise terminal and you’ll get to see a decent amount of Puerto Rico on the walk. Check out the murals across the street too!
At the beach
You are able to snorkel and the reef makes it easily swimmable. The views are great too; to the west you can see the Capi...

Arecibo, Puerto Rico
5.0
Take a short and easy guided hike up to and through the cave to this amazing view of the surrounding landscape and the Rio Grande de Puerto Rico, the river that runs below the cave. It is a 15 minute walk to reach the cave, then you will have another 30 minutes to explore the interior. The guide will teach you about the history and ecology of Puerto Rico, and a lot about the area.After reaching...
Surf Aviones
Torrecilla Baja, Puerto Rico
5.0
This is a reef break in San Juan Puerto Rico. This is probably the most consistent wave on the entire island of Puerto Rico! It's a very popular summer time spot for surf, as waves become unmanageable when the large NW swells come through. This wave offers both lefts and rights. I would recommend this spot for the more experienced surfer, since the wave isn’t the most forgiving and there is a...
