100 Things to Do in Puerto Rico Before You Die Amy Gordon

As you lounge under the shade of a palm tree, sip an icy piña colada out of the shell of a coconut and watch the sun sparkle on the turquoise Caribbean Sea, you might be tempted to spend all of your time on Puerto Rico soaking up the sun. But while this tropical paradise encompasses miles of exquisite beaches, there is so much more to discover. Let 100 Things to Do in Puerto Rico Before You Die introduce you to a treasure trove of culture and adventure just waiting to be experienced. Whether you’re a local or a first-time visitor, this book will guide you to the very best of Puerto Rico. Hike to cascading waterfalls in El Yunque, the only subtropical rainforest in the United States. Treat yourself to an ice cream cone in zany flavors like corn or rice and beans at Heladeria Lares, a family-run island institution since 1968. Head to Vieques to kayak in Mosquito Bay, where the water glows bright blue in the dark. Or lose yourself in the masterpieces that make up the world-renowned collection at the Ponce Museum of Art. It’s all within easy reach – no passport required.
