Things to do in San Juan
Castillo San Felipe del Morro
Situated in the San Juan Historic National Site, the Castillo San Felipe del Morro (commonly known as El Morro) is a 16th century citadel that was strategically placed to overlook the San Juan Bay so that it could defend the city. This iconic structure does not stand alone though; its sister, Castillo San Cristobal, is only a mile away. The walk alone offers breathtaking views with pastel colonial houses on one side and electric blue waters on the other.
Isla Verde Beach
A long stretch of sand in front of luxury resorts, restaurants, private beach clubs and parks, Isla Verde Beach is usually quiet during the week. Over the weekend, however, the beach comes alive. As the city's largest beach, it's the go-to place for every activity under the sun, from swimming and boating to parasailing and jet skiing. If you want to stay close to the beach's beautiful tropical landscape, warm blue waters and pristine sands, we recommend booking a stay at InterContinental San Juan Resort or Courtyard by Marriott Isla Verde Beach Resort.
El Yunque National Forest
Only a 45-minute drive from San Juan, the El Yunque National Forest is a great place to spend the day hiking, enjoying views or even swimming in the natural pools beneath waterfalls. La Coca Trail and El Angelito Trail are some of our favorite routes for enjoying a swim during your hike. El Yunque is the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National, and with a large amount of rainfall annually, the forest is home to hundreds of unique plant and animal species, including the island’s famous coquí frog.
