Puerto Rico
This island is something special among the pearls of the Caribbean, with its strong American flavour mixed with easy-going Latin-American elegance. Culture fans can stroll through the preserved old town of San Juan, while sun-worshippers can give themselves up to the Caribbean sun on countless beaches, and the more sporting can enjoy the immense and varied range of water sports and other activities on offer on the shimmering turquoise ocean. Those in search of night-life can salsa from bar to bar and experience what everyone on the island knows as “pura vida”.
El Yunque on the Eastern side of the island, one of the most accessible rainforests in the world, offers wonderful walks with spectacular sights right by the path, an unforgettable adventure guaranteed. At Parguera, the sparkling Bahìa Fosforescente surpasses any full moon, as tiny micro-organisms light up the night. Especially charming too is Ponce with its pastel-colored whitewashed houses in Spanish colonial style and fantastic views over mountains and ocean.
