Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico is one of the best Caribbean getaways because there are numerous flights to the island and it caters to a wide range of vacationers. The clear-water beaches are ideal for families, the shops in San Juan are popular with cruise ship passengers, the secluded island of Vieques is ideal for couples, and the 25-foot waves at Tres Palmas beach in Rincon draw surfers from all over the world.

Relax on Flamenco Beach with your beach towel or hike up to the El Morro fortress, one of the island's top attractions. Step outside at night to enjoy the bioluminescent microorganisms that glow in Mosquito Bay. Another advantage of visiting Puerto Rico is that there are frequently discounted packages available year-round, even during the winter months, when other Caribbean islands raise their prices.
