Things To Do
El Yunque National Forest
Our favorite places to see in the rainforest include Juan Diego Falls, a short walk through the rain forest to a beautiful waterfall; and Torre Yokahu, an observation tower that gives you a panoramic view of the forest, it's mountain range, and as far as the shores of the north and east of the island
Balneario El Escambron
This is one of our favorite local beaches. Great for a sunrise or sunset with Old San Juan in the far western backdrop.
Bio Bay Kayak Tours
Paddle through the beautiful bioluminescent bay near Fajardo on this kayak tour. Traverse the extensive mangrove forests with your marine biologist tour guide and learn about the science behind this natural phenomenon that occurs in Laguna Grande. See the lights twinkle below the water as you paddle along and admire the beautiful coastal scenery at dusk before heading back to the starting point. The ideal days for a an adventure would be as close to Feb 27-28 as possible when the New Moon is in the night sky.
