There are 20 designated forest reserves in Puerto Rico and an additional six proposed. There are also two Phosphorescent Bays, one off La Parguera on the southwest coast and one off the island of Vieques. Diving and snorkeling is along the Continental Shelf, which surrounds the island on the east, south and west coasts. Underwater terrain is diverse, with shallow reefs off Humacao on the east coast, caves and wrecks off Aguadilla on the west coast, and dramatic walls at The Great Trench, which starts in the Virgin Islands, stretches the entire length of Puerto Rico's south coast and winds up at Cabo Rojo on the west coast. In winter, migrating humpback whales travel the Mona Passage off the west coast.
Dolphins frequent the eastern shores.
Towering soft corals grow to 20 ft in some spots. Nighttime entertainment on Puerto Rico is sure to excite most visitors. Options range from flamboyant Latin revues and flamenco dancing to piano bars and lounges with live music. There are also several discotheques and casinos. Our consultants have intimate knowledge of the destination they specialize in.
