Nowhere else the influences of Spain and the United States mix in a way they do in Puerto Rico. Enjoy a rich cuisine, traditional festivals, vibrant music and the best rum in the tropical climate of the Caribbean. The country has more than 300 sandy white beaches to offer and a wildlife that includes 100 endangered species on Mona Island, also known as the Galapagos of the Caribbean. The subtropical rainforest El Yunque is one of the must-visits. The Caribbean, Spanish and African influences are what make the culture of Puerto Rico so colorful, diverse and lively.
