Puerto Rico Travel

Boricua [boh-ree-kwah] - it's more than a word to identify a person from Puerto Rico. It’s a way of life that means embracing the beauty that surrounds you, seeking adventure no matter where it may lead, and sharing that vibrant spirit with everyone you meet. When we plan your vacation to Puerto Rico, you’ll experience world-class beaches, from the black sands of Playa Negra to the turquoise waters of Playa Flamenco. Immerse in the rich 500-year-old Old San Juan with stunning forts, classic town plazas and iconic monuments.
Indulge in our foodie paradise, from renowned restaurants to seaside kiosks and innovative cocktail scenes.

​You'll be energized by all the natural wonders, like El Yunque, the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Forest system, all with NO U.S. passport needed. Most of all, when you connect with our warm, welcoming, passionate people, you’ll find the Boricua spirit in yourselves!
