San Juan offers something for everyone. Start by walking the cobblestone roads filled with colorful colonial homes in Old San Juan. Relax at one of the many beautiful beaches and try some watersports. If you are into nature, check out El Yunque rainforest for a hike and awesome waterfalls. (Prior to booking any tours for this ask about what areas are still closed due to hurricane recovery to determine if it is worth the money. You could also do a self-guided tour.) Lastly, be sure to indulge in authentic Puerto Rican cuisine. A must-try dish is Mofongo which is a mound of plantains into which seafood, meats, and vegetables are added.
