Perfect Island Vacation

by kazander - last update: Mar 31, 2006

Lou and I needed a warm weather relaxing getaway. He suggested Puerto Rico saying it was somewhere he had always wanted to go. Who knew? Of course I agreed and began the research right away. We had an amazing time and would return in a heartbeat!

In March we travelled to Puerto Rico for a lazy long weekend. We stayed in the Rainforest where the little coqui frogs lulled us to sleep. We hiked to rainforest waterfalls, kayaked in glowing waters, layed on beautiful beaches with yummy rum beverages, and went off to Culebra for snorkling adventures, it was a perfect tropical getaway.

I think Puerto Rico is a bit underrated. There is so much more to this island than just another beautiful beachfront (which of course it has plenty of) The myriad of other attractions is really what brought us to this island. The magical bioluminscent bay, the rainforest and Old San Juan were on the itinerary for this trip. On our next visit we hope to visit Camuy Caves, drive the Ruta Panoramica and travel over to some of the smaller islands with their interesting wildlife...and of course we may revisit some of our favorites...
All of the people we met here were so warm and welcoming, the food was so tasty and the atmosphere one of total relaxation. We will most definatey be back!
