Que hacer cerca del snorkel en San Juan
Fuertes e historia del Viejo San Juan
Old San Juan is a 10 minute walk or short ride from Escambron, making it an easy afternoon after a morning snorkel. Tour the Castillo San Felipe del Morro and San Cristobal, two clifftop Spanish forts with sweeping ocean views, then wander the blue cobblestone streets, plazas and cafes. Entry to the forts is a few dollars and they pair naturally with a waterfront lunch. The flat layout near the water makes it a relaxed contrast to an active reef morning.
Excursion a El Yunque
El Yunque National Forest, the only tropical rainforest in the US forest system, lies about 50 minutes east of San Juan, on the way to Fajardo. Hike to La Mina or Juan Diego waterfalls, swim in natural pools and climb the Yokahu observation tower. Reserve timed entry in advance during peak season. Many visitors combine a morning rainforest visit with an afternoon Fajardo boat tour, since both sit on the northeast coast within a short drive of each other.
Mas agua: kayak en la laguna y bahia bio
If snorkeling leaves you wanting more time on the water, the calm Condado Lagoon in the heart of the city is great for kayak and paddle board, including LED night paddles. For a bucket list night out, the bioluminescent bay near Fajardo glows blue when you stir the water on a guided kayak tour. Both are family friendly and complement a daytime reef trip without needing strong swimming skills, rounding out a full Puerto Rico water week.
Playas mas alla del arrecife
Puerto Rico has standout beaches to bookend your snorkel days. Luquillo Beach east of the city is a calm crescent with food kiosks, perfect for families. On a Culebra snorkel tour you can also relax at Flamenco Beach, regularly ranked among the world's best, with powder sand and turquoise water. Closer in, Condado and Isla Verde beaches suit a sunset stroll. Pack reef safe sunscreen and water, since shade and services vary by spot.
