Arriving in Puerto Rico: Your Journey from Dominican Republic

Leaving the Dominican Republic behind, the crossing to Puerto Rico takes you across the Mona Passage, a stretch of water known for strong currents, before San Juan's fortified coastline comes into view. Once docked, Old San Juan's colourful colonial streets and the Spanish fortresses of El Morro and San Cristóbal are essential first stops, with their sweeping ocean views a fitting reward after the crossing. The bioluminescent bay in nearby Vieques, reachable by a short onward ferry, offers one of the more unusual nighttime experiences in the Caribbean.
