Puerto Rico provides a Cultural Experience Right Next Door
Puerto Rico is blessed historically, culturally and aesthetically. With over 500 years of African, Taino, and Spanish heritage, the island maintains a characteristically Latin personality. Puerto Rico is an interesting mix of tropical island life and developed infrastructure. Puerto Ricans take pride in the purity of their island, and even in the overdeveloped capital of San Juan, the beaches are unspoiled.
Puerto Rico is a small tropical volcanic island, 100 miles long by 35 miles wide, but is a continent of its own. The island is divided into three main geographic regions: 1) golden coast plains; 2) a mountainous interior which rises to more than 3,000 feet above sea level and hosts breathtaking ocean and green mountain views; 3) and a northern plateau, home of interesting caves, rocky landscapes and also home to El Yunque, the only rainforest in the United States National Park System.
The capital, San Juan, is filled with sightseeing attractions, top-rated resorts, excellent restaurants, vibrant nightlife and luring casinos. Visitors are often especially attracted to Old San Juan. Its Spanish colonial architecture, history-filled cobblestone streets, and outdoor cafes, restaurants and shops maintain a quaint European feel. Outside the San Juan area lays the best hidden Puerto Rican secret. Small towns, quiet seaside restaurants and deserted golden beaches are reflective of Puerto Rico’s Spanish Mediterranean heritage.
Puerto Rico Climate – The Endless Summer
Puerto Rico’s climate is pleasant year round. Although summer highs can hit 95 degrees Fahrenheit, temperatures typically range from 77-90 degrees, depending on the time of year and the coastal winds. Rainy season is May through November and the average annual rainfall is 62 inches. Although Puerto Rico is susceptible to tropical storms and hurricanes from June to November, only five major hurricanes have hit the island in the last 50 years, all of them in the months of August and September.
