Puerto Rico is a US territory in the Caribbean, composed of one main island (Puerto Rico) and a spattering of smaller satellite islands. It has been dubbed the ‘Island of Enchantment’ for good reason: its long stretches of white sand beach, lush rainforest scenery, eclectic culture and exotic ambience make it an irresistible travel destination. The island is relatively small, so it’s easy to travel around and see most of the outstanding attractions. These include the misty tropical jungles of El Yunque National Park, the pristine beaches and bioluminescent mangrove bays of Vieques, and the capital, San Juan, known for its sizzling nightlife - especially around the Isla Verde area, where seductive salsa beats continue into the early hours of the morning.
