• Luquillo Beach
  "Great Beach"
  "We visited this beach and based on what we saw it was the best beach on mainland Puerto Rico. To enjoy this beach I highly recommend parking in the pay parking lot, which costs approximately five dollars. The pay lot puts you right at the best part of the beach with all of the amenities. The beac..."h has a bath house that you pay $1 per day to use. The cost of use is very justifiable as the beach house is well staffed and very clean. I felt very comfortable that my family would feel safe and appreciated this nice amenity. There is also a place to rent lounge chairs and umbrellas for the day, which again makes this a nice place to go with your family. Finally there was a small store to but sun tan lotion, sand toys, etc. You can literally show up at this beach with a bathing suit and a towel and have a great day.

We absolutely loved swimming in the waterfall and would highly recommend you give it a try. I think the entire trip cost us about 5 bucks as we packed our own drinks, etc. We did enjoy lunch from one of the food vendors outside on of the stops. Be prepared to get wet as this is a rainforest and even on a sunny day a rain sh... " More >
• The El Yunque Rain Forest
  "Don't miss this"
  "We spent a full day here and barely scratched the surface. One of the best times we've ever had. Wear your best walking shoes, since you'll be doing a lot of that, and allow plenty of time for your visit. Fabulous scenery. The waterfalls were amazing. We did not take an organized tour. We stop..."ped at the visitor's center and got information there regarding trails, etc. and just drove ourselves around. Would go back to Puerto Rico again just to see this. " More >
