    DISCOVER PUERTO RICO LEISURE + TRAVEL 2021 Puerto Rico Vacation Planning Guide 1 IT’S TIME TO PLAN FOR PUERTO RICO! It’s time for deep breaths and even deeper dives. For simple pleasures, dramatic sunsets and numerous ways to surround yourself with nature. It’s time for warm welcomes and ice-cold piña coladas. As a U.S. territory, Puerto Rico offers the allure of an exotic locale with a rich, vibrant culture and unparalleled natural offerings, without needing a passport or currency exchange. Accessibility to the Island has never been easier, with direct flights from domestic locations like New York, Charlotte, Dallas, and Atlanta, to name a few. Lodging options range from luxurious beachfront resorts to magical historic inns, and everything in between. High standards of health and safety have been implemented throughout the Island, including local measures developed by the Puerto Rico Tourism Company (PRTC), alongside U.S. Travel Association (USTA) guidelines. Outdoor adventures will continue to be an attractive alternative for visitors looking to travel safely. Home to one of the world’s largest dry forests, the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Forest System, hundreds of underground caves, 18 golf courses and so much more, Puerto Rico delivers profound outdoor experiences, like kayaking the iridescent Bioluminescent Bay or zip lining through a canopy of emerald green to the sound of native coquí tree frogs. The culture is equally impressive, steeped in European architecture, eclectic flavors of Spanish, Taino and African origins and a rich history – and welcomes visitors with genuine, warm Island hospitality.

  • The Best of Puerto Rico
    05_556282 ch01.qxd 6/16/04 10:53 AM Page 4 1 The Best of Puerto Rico Whatever you want to do on a tropical vacation or business trip—play on the beach with the kids (or gamble away their college funds), enjoy a romantic hon- eymoon, or have a little fun after a grueling negotiating session—you’ll find it in Puerto Rico. But you don’t want to waste precious hours once you get here searching for the best deals and the best experiences. We’ve done that work for you. During our years of traveling through the islands that form the Common- wealth of Puerto Rico, we’ve tested the beaches, toured the sights, reviewed countless restaurants, inspected hotels, and sampled the best scuba diving, hikes, and other outdoor activities. We’ve even learned where to get away from it all when it’s time to escape the crowds. Here’s what we consider to be the best that Puerto Rico has to offer. 1 The Best Beaches White sandy beaches put Puerto Rico mainly from New York. However, and its offshore islands on tourist straight people looking to meet maps in the first place.

Massive political protests, tropical storms, seismic activity and the COVID-19 pandemic have all affected our tourism Industry. Yet despite this, we enjoyed many accomplishments and reached several major milestones, including increased visitor demand, tourism revenues and meeting/convention sales. As we review the progress made in the second year of your DMO, Discover Puerto Rico, I am very proud to report that together, we are accomplishing great things! Despite investing significantly less than many of our competitors, we have delivered a high return-on-investment and significant improvements to our destination brand health. This contributed to record growth in tourism economic impact, tax collections and employment seen throughout 2019. As we entered 2020, the future of tourism looked bright, with advance bookings and airline capacity all pointing to substantial increases. Unfortunately, seismic activity, a global pandemic and an economic recession have temporarily disrupted our progress. Nevertheless, Puerto Rico remains a premier tourism destination and we remain committed to growing tourism to new heights.
