Old San Juan

Consisting of 400 restored buildings from the 16th- and 17th-century Spanish colonial period, this area in San Juan is steeped in history with an old-world and romantic European charm.

Reviewed By MaryannL521 - Fair Oaks, United States

Old San Juan is beyond charming. There is so much history here, great architecture, landmarks, cobblestone streets, wonderful food, great museums, El Morro and San Cristobol, beautiful parks and plazas and lovely residential streets. We walked everywhere but also rode the free trolley. There are three trolley lines that will take you almost anywhere in the old city. A good place to begin is to stop at one of the many Tourist Information Centers. We found the one directly across from Pier One to be the most helpful. Here we got a list of museums and their hours as well as a self guided walking tour and directions to take the ferry to Casa Bacardi. Don't miss the San Juan Gate, Fortaleza Street, the cathedral, the San Juan Historic Cemetery and the Paseo de la Princesa. Enjoy!

Bioluminescent Mosquito Bay

Reviewed By Vacationer76201 - Napa, United States

I've taken numerous Bio Bay trips over the years and each has been wonderful; this year we went on the clear kayaks and it was the best yet as you can see the fireworks directly below you. Go when there is little moonlight. The moon rises 50 minutes later each day, so viewing is good to excellent starting 3 or 4 days after the full moon up until the last few days before the next full moon. BTW: streetlights on the south side of the island are being replaced w/ red lights to help nesting turtles and also benefits Bio Bay.

This was breath-less view of the ocean! Words cannot describe how beautiful it but it is must-see experience! When driving to the location, be careful of all the pot-holes though!

Coamo Thermal Hot Springs

Caters to the "health tourism" industry as visitors enjoy the soothing effects of dipping into the hot springs' mineral waters. The site features two thermal pools with access for people with disabilities, public restrooms and showers, and a food concession area.

Rented a car and drove down to Coamo on the advice of our Uber driver. It was so worth it! The cost of admission is very cheap and the thermal baths are amazing!

Reviewed By achristy2018 - Metro Minneapolis-Saint Paul, United States

Even though we went on a night with a relatively full moon, the experience was unlike anything else. The kayak tour was easy and left lots of time to marvel at how the neon water spilled off our paddles and swirled with each stroke.
