Besides all of the attractions within the main island, you can also escape to the nearby Culebra and Vieques islands for more seclusion and gorgeous scenery.  

Tips for Exploring Puerto Rico

As U.S. territory, Puerto Rico uses the same currency as in the states. Therefore, you can travel on the U.S. Dollar and don't have to worry about exchanging currencies. You also do not need a passport or travel visa when traveling from the U.S. Wear light and loose fitted, cotton clothing to bear the warm tropical climate, and bring layers for cooler evenings and mountain excursions. Get to know the friendly locals, and be sure to experience the vibrant nightlife! What are you waiting for? Book your San Juan flights with Frontier today!
