map Puerto Rico

Destination overview

On the eastern edge of the West Indies archipelago, facing the Dominican Republic, the island of Puerto Rico is oblong in shape. The most Latin of all American islands! If you're looking for sites for scuba-diving in turquoise water, active sun tanning, but also relaxing on floury sand beaches, come here! And at the end of the day, it's time to party all night long! For a cultural morning after, direction San Juan (a Unesco world heritage site) and the cities of Ponce and Loiza: very rich with exceptional architectural heritage. Last but not least, how about a green adventure in tropical forests, valleys or even in the mountains?

pros

  •  Puerto Rico has all the ingredients of a Caribbean destination: sunshine, sea and beaches.
  •  Hotels and tourist services are good.
  •  The friendly atmosphere will make you forget about your daily routine.

cons

  •  The cost of tourist living is higher than on any other neighbouring island.
  •  The island becomes overcrowded with tourists in high season.

Puerto Rico Travel guide

Our Editorial team's advice

If you are looking for peace and quiet, avoid the period between mid-December and mid-April. During the rest the year, you can also enjoy much more affordable prices and a much more authentic atmosphere.
Drive very carefully, especially on main and secondary roads, because the Puerto Ricans drive very fast. Never overtake a school bus, even when it has pulled over because it is considered a major offence. In Puerto Rico, there is no priority for right and traffic lights are set on the other side of the road.
In Puerto Rico, the word "playa" can be the source of a misunderstanding because, for the Puerto Ricans, it can refer to a seaside embankment or district. You may be very surprised if, after having asked for directions, you think you are heading for a heavenly beach.
