 Twins at Isla Verde Beach,
Puerto Rico by jumpingnorman, 2 more photos
There are lots of luxury condos and apartments, and even the glitzy Ritz is located here which we also took advantage of. Restaurants are aplenty, and mostly the prices are a bit high for the tourists. There is however affordable food near the Pueblo shopping center (including a Denny’s) and then you have above-average prices at the Marriott restaurants, and then if you want to go way up at $50 per plate – try the Ritz’s “Steak” which is also very good and classy I must say.
So, if you’re going to Puerto Rico for luxury and for the beach and still want to be close to the airport, this is the area you want to stay at. Leave a Comment

If you're on the shore in Condado, you probably think you're on Condado beach (that's what I thought!). Try the public beach at the end of Ashford Avenue (away from the Marriott). What you get instead of crashing surf, sandy bottoms, and strong currents is a peaceful inlet protected by a rock formation of some kind. The water is warm, the fish (very visible and beautiful) are tropical, and the outside showers are helpful. Suggestion: take a walk (or the bus) to Playa de Condado, sit chest high in the calm water, and take in paradise! Address: End of Ashford Avenue, just before bridgeDirections: If your walking out of the Marriott Hotel on Ashford, take a right. Go to the end of Ashford. Or jump on the B21 at any "parada" and look for the sign/beach TELL ME IF THIS TIP WAS HELP OR HINDERANCE. EMAIL AT quadeagle@hotmail.com

I have to admit that I spent way too small a portion of my time in Puerto Rico at the beach. It is definately a great thing to do on days when you don't want to rush around site seeing. The water is warm, the sun is hot and the beaches are full of "eye candy" for both the ladies and the gents. One of my favorite things about the beaches here is that vendors roam up and down the beaches selling corona's, beer, water and pop (soda for those of you who don't know). Be sure to wear your sunblock and bring it along to reapply often. The rays here are strong and you will burn.

The beaches in San Juan offer good surf and the ocean is clean!
There are usually locals on the beach renting out bodyboards and sunbaking chairs.
It was a funny momment in San Juan when the tide come in and there were people asleep on their sunbaking chairs: to wake up and see they were surrounded by water and their books soaked. One of those "you had to be there" momments. Leave a Comment

The waves on Candado range from gentle to downright scary! They are a body-surfer's or boogey-boarder's delight. The white sand and green water add up to a lot of fun! Leave a Comment Directions: Candado Beach is right downtown in the hotel district. Many hotels and casinos are on the beach, however, there is public access on both the east and west sides.

The beach runs all along Condado and are crowded with local residents. These pictures were taken while most people were at dinner. Candado beaches accessible by the local populace are not safe after dark.

One day tour - board the boat and sail to a small island on the caribbean side of the island. Snorkel, swim, walk on the beach....just relax and enjoy the sea.
They include a wonderful lunch on the boat, cocktails and sodas. After lunch you motor over to a reef for additional snorkeling and the thena leisurely sail back to Puerto Rico. The whole day goes from 10am-4pm and it is great. Avergae costs: $50 per person. The boats are available in Fajardo, you can find a selection in "Que Pasa " magazine in your hotel. Leave a Comment Address: Fajardo, Puerto Rico
