El Yunque National Forest

There are over 250 different plant species and even more variety of animal species, but scientists still have not discovered all of the plants and animals in El Yunque Forest! In this massive National Forest, you can explore the unknown and hike through the lush vegetation, zip line through the trees or, if you’re really brave, experience the forest at night with a twilight rainforest nature walk.

Playa Negra (Black Sand Beach)

Playa Negra is certainly a natural wonder. Located on the southern shore of Vieques is this gorgeous sight. The black sand from runoff of magma from Monte Pirata. You can usually see the most noticeable black sand when there has been ample rainfall.

Full-moon zip lining in Mucaro through the rainforest

Ever wondered how to make zip lining hundreds of feet in the air even more exciting? Do it at night, with a full moon! This exciting activity is sure to get your adrenaline pumping and give you some of the most beautiful views of breath taking Puerto Rico.
