Number 10: Go for a hike in El Yunque National park – This is the only subtropical rainvforest in the US (besides Hawaii) and is filled with so much bio diversity. Make sure you spot the ylang ylang tree to smell the beautiful flowers used in some of the best perfumes. ecotourspuertorico.com/el-yunque-tours-rainforest/
Number 9: Have lunch in La Placita at Chef Jose Enrique’s restaurant. Jose Enrique is an award winning chef who uses his master culinary skills to enrich traditional Puerto Rican dishes.

Number 8: Shop in el Mercado in La Placita – Be sure to stop by and talk to Hector Ruiz Housler, who sells herbs and concoctions used to treat all sorts of ailments.
Number 7: Have a cafecito at Café Cuatro Sombras - Located in Old San Juan and has the richest, most authentic Puerto Rican coffee in town. cuatrosombras.com/

Number 5: Go to Piñones for authentic Puerto Rican street food – Try the fresh oysters, clams and all of the delicious fried food offered here. Be sure to pass by the cultural center to learn the history of this important Puerto Rican neighborhood.
Number 4: Spend an afternoon in the Botanical Gardens – Take a tour and smell the cinnamon and bay rum trees and if you’re lucky, you just might spot a coqui. sanjuanpuertorico.com/san-juan-botanical-garden-ja…
Number 3: Stay on Condado Beach. I love the San Juan Marriott Resort and Casino. It’s a quick drive from the airport, has breathtaking views, and has amazing service. www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/sjupr-san-juan-marr…
Number 2: Have a Bioluminescence experience - Puerto Rico has three Bioluminescent bays which contain millions of micro-organisms, called “dinoflagellates”, that glow fluorescent in the dark when agitated. ecotourspuertorico.com/bio-lagoon-kayak/
Number 1: Explore the beaches. Puerto Rico is blessed with beautiful beaches around the entire island. With warm Caribbean water and happy vacationers relaxing with their good vibes, a visit to the beach is an absolute must. My top picks are Condado, Luquillo, Dorado and Bahia Beach.

Top tip if you're coming to PR: DO NOT get tourist trapped in San Juan. It's nice and all, but you still have an entire Island full of wonder to experience.
-
As a native of Puerto Rico, I recommend you to go to Vieques and Culebra for a nice beach day. Or go to Fajardo or to Señor Paleta in Old San Juan. These places are underrated but cool.
-
I love visiting Puerto Rico!!! The people, the music, I love dancing Salsa and PR has the BEST Salsa bands in the world, their culture , their food. Everything is awesome.
-
Make sure you also check out the caves! Our native ancestors thought they were the womb of the earth. A lot happens there
-
She mentioned the regular tourist stuff of tourists that stay in San Juan and go only to El Yunque. There is so much more than that. Caja de Muertos, Gilligans Island, Vieques, Culebra, Rincon, Fajardo, etc.

Nice video, but I hope you don't mind if I add a few more to your list: •The centuries-old Spanish fortresses in Old San Juan. •Zipline over a high forest at Toro Verde Nature Adventure Park. •Museums / Art galleries / night clubs / bars •Golf •The Mall of San Juan •Plaza Las Americas Mall ...and so much more.

Don't miss Cafe Kamoli on Calle Loiza in Ocean Park. Absolutely delicious food for breakfast & lunch. Divine cocktails, acai bowls & juices too!
-
I had to give this video a like. Just saw three other videos, and, from my previous trips to Puerto Rico, they were naive travellers at best. Thank you for this video. I liked how you put El Morro in with other area art because I have had friends who thought it would take a whold day with the forts.
