There are so many different parts of Puerto Rico, that the problem is not finding something of interest; rather, it is prioritizing the list of things to do according to how much time one has. I have lived in Puerto Rico for over 15 years and there are still many places on my Puerto Rico ‘bucket list’! Here is our great new infographic on some of the top things to do. However, it is only a sampling… there are many more things to do and perhaps in the future we will add to them….

Here are some additional locations that should also be added to the list of Things to Do In Puerto Rico:

Here are a few more destinations that deserve a spot on any Puerto Rico travel itinerary:

Fajardo – Best known for the glowing waters of Bioluminescent Bay, as well as excellent sailing, snorkeling, diving, and marina activities.

Ponce – Puerto Rico’s second-largest city, famous for its colorful architecture, the Ponce Art Museum, and the island’s largest Carnival celebrations.

Coamo – A relaxing destination known for its natural thermal springs and historic downtown.

Aibonito – Nicknamed the Garden of Puerto Rico thanks to its cooler climate, beautiful mountain scenery, and annual Flower Festival.
