Experience Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico is aptly nicknamed the Island of Enchantment and it is known to almost hypnotize you into releasing all of your bad "karma". No matter which you choose all roads lead to paradise. Whether you are looking for something to stimulate your culture-rich thirst or a sunny relaxing escape from the confines of urbanity you will find it here.

For a little Old World culture checkout Old San Juan that was originally built as a fortress in the 1500's. With its restored 16th century buildings and the decades year old homes with wrought iron balconies overlooking cobblestone streets it is one of the richest visual experiences you will have. You can visit ancient Indian ceremonial areas, check out two of the oldest and most architecturally unique Spanish Colonial churches and even visit the Bacardi Rum distillery. Or if you are a little more adventurous consider signing up for an excursion to the El Yunque Rain Forest with its fabulous flora and fauna.

Naturally you cannot visit a Caribbean island without soaking up the sunshine and checking out the natural wonders that Puerto Rico has to offer. In the coastal areas the cool breezes and soft waves immediately and pleasantly rejuvenate all of your senses.

Scuba diving is always a great choice and gives you a chance to see dolphins, seat turtles and even various rare species of marine life. If you want to experience the ocean but not necessarily submerge yourself in it there are many other waters sports such as surfing, sailing and deep-sea fishing to name just a few.

No matter what you choose to experience it will get into your head and is likely to keep bringing you back for more and more.
