5 days in San Juan Itinerary

Founded by the Spanish in 1521, San Juan is the oldest city under U.S. jurisdiction and one of the oldest in the Americas.

Step off the beaten path and head to Cascada La Mina (La Mina Falls) and Balneario Luquillo. Get in touch with nature at Fishing Charters & Tours and Playa Mar Chiquita. Venture out of the city with trips to Caribbean Trading Company Store (in Palmer) and Zipline (in Rio Grande). There's still lots to do: kick back and relax at Playa Ocean Park, stroll through Carolina Beach, stroll the grounds of Santa Maria Magdalena de Pazzis Cemetery, and get to know the fascinating history of Paseo de la Princesa.
