El Yunque Rainforest

Get away from San Juan to inhale the crisp, clean air of the El Yunque Rainforest. Look for nature's extravagant display of flora and fauna among the many hiking trails and observation points scattered throughout the forest.

The El Yunque Rainforest is home to more than 79 types of birds and 225 native tree species. The forest also hides waterfalls, mangroves, and other wildlife among its bright green foliage. See if you can spot the elusive Puerto Rican parrot or chirping pairs of the San Pedrito, little Saint Peter birds. A guide takes you to the El Portal Visitor's Center, La Coca Falls, and the Yokahu Observation Tower, where you can peer out to the blue waters along Luquillo Beach. Don't forget your camera!
