Puerto Rico family holidays
“The Island of Enchantment”; where the island’s natural beauty is inextricably intertwined with her rich history, sublime magic and magnetic energy. This vibrant archipelago is the perfect getaway for the family holiday: the mothers, the brothers, the sisters and the friends.
Puerto Rico boasts some serious scenes where bays are glowing; architecture’s painted multicoloured; oceans are a rich azure, and the sand is a fine golden powder.
Family holidays to Puerto Rico
Best activities in Puerto Rico for families
Step back in time on a visit to the cobbled streets of Old San Juan, the UNESCO world heritage site and the countries most adored tourism hotspot. Brushed with an eclectic array of tropical colours, these brightly painted houses are set against the welcoming, ever-blue sky. The colonial architecture, in hand with the city's forts, tell stories of the countries vibrant past.
Nearing 100 miles per hour, “El Monstruo” or "The Monster", is America’s largest, and the world’s second-largest, zipline! Faster than a cheetah; this zip line accelerates across the span of 28 football fields. Part of the largest adventure park in the Caribbean and America’s, Toroverde is a must-visit for the kids (and adults!)
Add a touch of magic to your holidays by swimming, kayaking or canoeing through Puerto Rico’s bioluminescent bays – they have three!
Best destinations in Puerto Rico for families
A city-break and an island getaway rolled into one; for a short stay in Puerto Rico, we recommend the Capital San Juan followed by a stay on Vieques or Culebra Island. The city, home to a UNESCO world heritage site, is 3 miles from their main international airport - Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport. The southern city of Ponce is also a good landing spot for your family holiday, locking in the Caribbean Sea beaches.
For the nature nuts, we would suggest staying near the El Yunque rainforest in the Rio Grande. Follow it up with a trip to a beachside property to provide for all your landscape needs.
