5 days in San Juan Itinerary

Founded by the Spanish in 1521, San Juan is the oldest city under U.S.

Step out of the city life by going to Waterskiing & Jetskiing and Luquillo Beach. Get a sense of the local culture at Museo de Arte de Ponce and La Guancha. Explore San Juan's surroundings by going to Fajardo (Icacos Island & Kayaking & Canoeing), La Mina Falls (in El Yunque National Forest) and Balneario Luquillo (in Luquillo). There's lots more to do: enjoy the sand and surf at Condado Beach, stroll the grounds of San Juan Cemetery, and don't miss a visit to Paseo de la Princesa.
