Laguna Grande: Fajardo’s Bio Bay Revisited

Aug 13th, 2008 • By Gwenn • Category: East, Nature, Tour

In the spring of 2007, the Puerto Rico Department of Natural Resources banned swimming in Laguna Grande in Fajardo.

This past year we had heard the health of the biobay was making a comeback, so we were eager to see that for ourselves.

Swim with the Stars in the Vieques Biobay

Apr 2nd, 2008 • By Gwenn • Category: East, Nature, Tour

Let me just start with this: In my opinion, the Vieques biobay experience is better than the Fajardo biobay. The glow is bright and the electric pontoon trip is easy and relaxing.
I have visited all 3 biobays in Puerto Rico, and Mosquito Bay in Vieques really seems to out-glow the others. It [...]

Discover the City of Ponce via Trolley

Jan 9th, 2008 • By Gwenn • Category: History, Museum, Shopping, South, Tour

I enjoy visiting Ponce because it is an old city that has a lot to offer. But the city of Ponce is spread out over a large area, so walking around the city to see everything can be overwhelming for a first-time visitor. Luckily, Ponce offers a trolley tour that takes you around the city [...]
