Puerto Rico boasts all kinds of beaches. Want to stroll down a black-sand beach? Head to Vieques Playa Negra. Looking for world-class surfing? Make the trip to Rincon. Need secluded white sands and crystal-clear waters? Check out Flamenco Beach in Culebra. All are great for visiting pre or post your cruise from San Juan.
Beyond the sandy beaches and lush jungles lie other natural wonders. Explore cavernous labyrinths like La Jungla Cave Park. See translucent mangrove lagoons like the ones in Parguera. Or trek through dry forests like Bosque Seco in Guanica. Keep in mind both are 2 hours from San Juan where your ship will dock.
A colorful center of culture, food and one of the best bars in the world (La Factoria), Old San Juan is an almost 500-year-old Spanish colonial town with the vibrant panache of the tropics. Wear comfortable shoes and explore every ancient nook of this wonderful walled city.
While you're in San Juan, learn more about Puerto Rico's Spanish roots at the Castillo San Felipe del Morro. This UNESCO World Heritage site was built in the 16th-century in Old San Juan and faces the open sea.

Tostones are twice-fried plantains that are made into thin and crisp saucers to dip into mayoketchup, a blend of ketchup and mayonnaise with a dash of garlic.
Puerto Rico is famous for its pernil, a roasted pork shoulder with crispy skin spiced with garlic and adobo, typically served over rice and beans with a side of sweet plantains. The mountain town of Cayey is known for having perfected pernil, but you don't have to leave San Juan for a taste — just head to El Jibarito or Bebo's Cafe.
