Short on time? These are the 5 experiences most tourists say made their Puerto Rico trip — and 3 of them are reachable on a single boat charter day.
Start here — these three cover the water, the rainforest, and Old San Juan history.
Icacos, Palomino, Culebra, or Vieques — a captained charter is the single most-mentioned Puerto Rico experience, and the only way to reach some of these spots at all.
The only tropical rainforest in the US National Forest System, about 20-30 minutes from Fajardo. Pairs well with a charter on the same day.
The 16th-century Castillo San Felipe del Morro, overlooking the bay — best seen from the water on a sightseeing yacht tour, or on foot in Old San Juan.
These take a bit more planning but are consistently called the highlight of the whole trip.
Mosquito Bay on Vieques — one of the brightest bioluminescent bays in the world, best seen on a clear, moonless night.
Regularly ranked among the world's best beaches — white sand, clear water, reachable by a day charter from Fajardo.

On foot in Old San Juan, or from the water on a sightseeing yacht tour that also passes Castillo San Cristobal.
