Puerto Rico Vacations & Travel Tips

Fast Facts

The island is a territory of the United States discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1493, just one year after he discovered the Americas. He called it San Juan Bautista in honor of John the Baptist.

Every town in Puerto Rico celebrates its own Fiestas Patronales, Saint’s Day, with religious processions plus parades, games, rides, regional food, and entertainment. Each town has its own festival, which occurs on different days every single month. So, you can usually find one happening during your Puerto Rican holiday.
