No matter what kind of traveler you are, the island serves up good vibes year round. Want to catch a wave? Lounge on the beach? Get a taste of local flavor? Yep, you can do all that and more.

Known as the <em>Porta del Sol<\/em>, this region of Puerto Rico offers powerful waves for a totally tubular experience. And this area happens to be home to my favorite village on the entire island: Rincon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This small town is referred to as <em>The Town of Beautiful Sunsets<\/em>. And if that\u2019s not reason enough to visit, it\u2019s also home to some of the most popular beaches on the island. If you\u2019re here to surf, you\u2019re not alone \u2013 thousands flock to Rincon every year to test their skills out on the water. Not comfortable on a board? Not a problem, dude. There are plenty of places where you can rent all the gear you need and sign up for surf lessons. Perfect for beginner or <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"intermediate surfers (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/seeker.io\/top-3-intermediate-surf-destinations-2\/\" target=\"_blank\">intermediate surfers<\/a>.

An island where wild horses roam free and the water illuminates the night? It\u2019s not a fantasy \u2013 it\u2019s Vieques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just seven miles off the east coast of Puerto Rico sits Vieques, a tropical paradise for the beach bum in all of us. The majority of the island (about 70%) is preserved as a US Fish &amp; Wildlife Refuge, which means it\u2019s untouched by construction or commercialization. While it has increased in popularity over the past decade, Vieques is still a relatively quiet, tranquil paradise, waiting to be explored and enjoyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-latitude=\"18.147463\" data-longitude=\"-65.444878\" src=\"https:\/\/d39ghehfp8sbx4.cloudfront.net\/media\/img\/1\/31dab4ce-151e-418e-8775-9231b3152966-1400.jpg?placeid=4237&amp;name=Vieques&amp;lat=18.147463&amp;lng=-65.444878\" alt=\"Vieques, Puerto Rico.\"\/><figcaption>Vieques, Puerto Rico.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One of my favorite beaches in Vieques is <a href=\"https:\/\/vieques.com\/island-puerto-rico-beaches-caracas-red\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Playa Caracas (opens in a new tab)\">Playa Caracas<\/a> \u2013 a remote beach surrounded by palm trees and mangroves, with rocky cliffs standing like bookends at each end of the bay. You won\u2019t find any cafes, food, or drinks here \u2013 but this also means fewer people and much more nature! So, break out your floppy hat, grab your favorite book, and lounge the day away on the gorgeous sands of Playa Caracas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And as the sun sets, prepare for a real treat at the Bioluminescent Bay (also known as <a href=\"https:\/\/vieques.com\/island-bioluminescent-bay\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Mosquito Bay (opens in a new tab)\">Mosquito Bay<\/a>), which was named by Guinness Book of World Records to be the brightest recorded bio-bay. Head out to the bay for an unforgettable nighttime adventure. As you glide across the water in a kayak, you\u2019ll be spellbound by the glowing water surrounding you \u2013 courtesy of the luminescent organisms that live beneath the surface. This mystical experience is a natural wonder you must see to believe!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While I love the enchanting beaches and bays of Vieques, my favorite part of visiting this island is the elegant Paso Fino horses that roam free. These magnificent creatures are a perfect symbol of the island\u2019s wild, carefree vibe. Horses are actually the preferred mode of transportation on Vieques, which doesn\u2019t have a single traffic light. In fact, you\u2019ll probably see a local riding a horse to the store or to drop off their kids at school!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get a taste of Caribbean nirvana in Vieques.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Puerto Rico: one island, endless possibilities.
