Here you’ll find pristine sands, coral reefs and jungle-covered hilltops nestling lagoon-like bays. There’s no shortage of places to relax and recharge across five stretches of beach.

Beyond San Juan, visitors can venture off to the mountains, caves, coral reefs, pristine beaches, and even the massive rain forest, El Yunque, for fantastic explorations.
St. Maarten

Finally, the charming island of St. Maarten offers a world of possibilities when Dutch and French cultures combine to create a little magic everywhere you turn. Soak up the sun on the pristine sands of Orient Beach, with options from water sports to charming French Bistros. Later, head to Maho Beach to experience the exhilarating sight of planes soaring just overhead as they land. Or strole the colorful streets of Philipsburg for duty-free shopping and local eats.
