Puerto Rico

Bustling and overcrowded during high season, this famous family resort – particularly popular with British families – can be very nice and quiet in low season. Puerto Rico’s beach is a crescent of golden sand imported from the Sahara, descending gently into the sea, making it an ideal playground for children. Space is rare here and sun beds are even lined up on a jetty. Set back from the beach, in a lush tropical garden with exotic plants and flowers you will find two public swimming pool lidos. Renowned to be the sunniest spot of the island, this holiday resort is a true paradise for sun worshippers.


Puerto Rico is also known for the many water sports activities it is offering, ranging from water-skiing, sailing, diving, big game fishing and windsurfing to leisure excursions such as pleasure boat trips along the coast, dolphin watching cruises or a trip in a glass bottom boat to discover the world under the water surface.


Other ‘off-beach’ attractions include golf courses, a water park featuring all kinds of entertainment for young and old and an attractive shopping centre nearby.
