We are sure you will enjoy a day visit to the El Yunque National Rain Forest where the views and nature trails will mesmerize you with the splendor of exquisite natural foliage. Make sure you take the trail to the Coca waterfall and wear shorts or a swim trunk so that you can take a plunge in the cool pristine water pond where the river downstream is born; you will never forget this one. The El Faro Lighthouse Museum and adjacent Las Cabezas de San Juan Nature Reserve (bioluminescent mangrove lagoon) and the above water boardwalk and nature trail walk are found a short 15 minutes drive on the scenic road that leads to Las Croabas in the neighboring town of Fajardo where you can take day trips by Ferry to Vieques and Culebra. At the foot of this same road you will find local fishermen selling their catch of the day and some are for hire and will take you out on day excursions to the many little isolated islands including Palomino Island, Cayo Icacos and others.

Flamenco Camping 787-742-0700

Reservations are usually not needed to stay in Flamenco Beach Campground. Just stop by the main office when you arrive on the island and check-in; at this time the front desk staff will assign you a camp site location to pitch your tent. The daily rate to pitch a tent at the campsite is $20, which allows you to accommodate a maximum number of 6 people in your tent. Unfortunately, you may only camp for up to seven (7) consecutives nights. Check-in time starts at 8:00 am and check-out time is at 4:00 pm.

snorkeling

• snorkeling Carlos Rosario 20 minutes past Flamenco, trail starts at gate located along parking lot fence
• Snorkeling from the beach at Carlos Rosario and the beach around the corner to the left (going toward Tamarindo) was fantastic! You have a 15 minute hike to C.Rosario from the parking lot at Flamenco. At the end of the trail there's a path to the right to Rosario. The path to the left leads to great snorkeling. Right when you see the beach, you'll see a sandy trail in the water straight ahead. Snorkel around to the right - it's amazing. Saw turtle there too. You can also get in from the rocky beach at Melone's, although it requires paying close attention to where the sea urchins are. We also rented a boat from Butch at Culebra Boat Rentals and had a blast! Snorkeling at Melones from the boat was incredible. Saw turtles and spotted eagle rays. Saw dozens upons dozens of different kinds of fish, coral and fans. Very colorful; very diverse. There were high surf advisories almost the entire 12 days we were in Vieques and Culebra so it made snorkeling more challenging and visibility less than perfect. But still incredible! You can easily check out the shark pen area on Flamenco - easy to get in there from the beach. Go all the way down Flamenco past Coconuts and you'll see the old shark pen.
• I like Punta Soldado. Adventurous drive, nice patch reef right offshore. I have seen moray eels, barracudas, and even an eagle ray there.

Hi Tim,

Here's the info on where we are staying. It is right across from the rain forest. If you contact them, check about the 2 for 1 deal - stay for 2 nights get one for free. And get your room near ours. There is a bakery at the bottom of the hill from the hotel that has a great breakfast.

We are arriving in San Juan on Mon. 2/15 at 12:00 and leaving on 2/22 @ 8:45 pm. We rented a car. The hotel is near Luquillo - good beaches and Fajardo. We will leave from Fajardo to go to Culebra for a day.
