      Discover the Rum Capital of the World

      Blessed with beautiful beaches that are drenched by year-round sunshine, Puerto Rico has a plethora of offerings to Eastern Caribbean cruise passengers, from rainforest trails to scorching-hot salsa dancing. The coast is incredible — raw, unspoiled, glittering sands that go on for miles, with lush surroundings covered by tropical rainforests and mountains.

      The island’s capital San Juan is clearly influenced by Puerto Rico’s rich melting pot of cultures; European, African and Taino. This city offers an energetic array of festivals, gracious colonial architecture, quaint cobbled treats and food that will tantalise the taste buds. Set on the island's southern coast, Ponce is another stunning port of call — dubbed the “Pearl of the South” for its rich history, topography and architecture. Puerto Rico locals are as welcoming as they are dynamic, and once you’ve sampled the world-class rum you simply won’t want to leave. Relax and experience it all, only on an Eastern Caribbean cruise…

      Puerto Rico Cruise Highlights

      Old San Juan
      Old San Juan

      Old San Juan

      The old capital of San Juan offers an eclectic mix of cultures and serves as the island’s historic centre. History buffs can visit the San Juan National Historic Site Castillo, home to the Castillo San Cristóbal and El Morro — which are age-old sister fortifications that used to protect the walled city from land and sea attacks. The cobblestone streets of the historic district are lined with brightly-coloured houses and shaded plazas, alongside hip cocktail bars and Caribbean fusion restaurants. 

      El Yunque Rain Forest
      El Yunque Rain Forest

      El Yunque Rain Forest

      El Yunque is a tropical rainforest in northeastern Puerto Rico with trails crisscrossed by sparkling rivers and streams, as well as gorgeous waterfalls to leave you in awe! This sprawling nature forest is the only one of its kind in the U.S. National Forest System. The El Portal visitor centre makes an ideal starting point, with an interpretative trail that winds through verdant greenery. Get the opportunity to spot the endangered Puerto Rican parrot! The cascading rainforest falls that plunge into natural pools, such as the La Mina Falls, La Coca Falls, and Juan Diego Falls, offer a refreshing break from the long hike.

      Bioluminescent Mosquito Bay

      Bioluminescent Mosquito Bay

      One of the most unmissable experiences when travelling to Puerto Rico is witnessing the spectacular natural phenomenon of the Bioluminescent Mosquito Bay. Travellers can enjoy kayaking the azure waters of Laguna Grande — a bioluminescent bay in San Juan River that emits a blue glow from organisms called dinoflagellates at night, creating a glow-in-the-dark effect when stirred up by the motion of boats. Kayakers traverse the channel passing through a tunnel of mangroves leading to the sparkling lagoon.

      Things to Do in Puerto Rico

      Hit up the best beaches in Puerto Rico

      Home to an extensive stretch of Caribbean shoreline, Puerto Rico boasts a host of white-sand beaches kissed by year-round sunshine and lapped by turquoise waters. Flamenco Beach is the perfect spot for families and snorkelers, with calm waters and a delightful aesthetic at every corner. Meanwhile, Sandy Beach is a tourist-famous stretch, fringed by luxury stays, casual to high-end restaurants and buzzing beach bars. If you wish to escape the large crowds, head to the remote island of Culebrita, home to laid-back beaches like Tortuga Beach.

      Stroll around the quaint town of Ponce

      Nicknamed the “ Pearl of the South” or the Manorial City,” Ponce draws tourists for its impressive architecture and Old-World charm. Whilst here, you can visit the Ponce Art Museum, featuring a collection of over 4,000 art pieces, including the world-renowned Flaming June painting. Another note-worthy landmark in this port destination is Parque de Bombas — a historic former fire station known to be the first in Puerto Rico. Be sure to drop by the main square as well, welcoming visitors with an iconic fountain, landscaped gardens and colonial architecture.

      Take a rum tasting tour in Casa Bacardi

      Puerto Rico is argued to be the Rum capital of the world, so what better way to wrap up your trip than with a rum tasting tour? Casa Bacardi is a renowned distillery in the Caribbean and the birthplace of the piña colada cocktail. On a 90-minute guided tour, learn about the intricate production of  World’s most-awarded rum and the legacy of the family behind it, immerse yourself with the mixology classes and make your own rum-based cocktails and then be rewarded with a rum tasting session afterward!
