We start our adventure from the Waterfront Princess promenade. Enjoy the views of the San Juan Bay (Spanish: Bahía de San Juan) is the bay and main inlet adjacent to Old San Juan. It is about 3.5 miles (5.6 km) in length, the largest body of water in an estuary of about 97 square miles (250 km2)[ of channels, inlets and eight interconnected lagoons.The San Juan Bay is home to the island's busiest harbor. Across the bay you"ll see the magnificent El Yunque; Bacardi distillery; el Canuelo Fort and the Isla de la Cabra- former leprecy colony.
El Paseo de La Princesa, the most beloved promenade in Puerto Rico, dates back to 1853. This beautifully restored walk is a favorite place for locals day and night and welcomes millions of visitors from all over the world. It was built in 1853 to allow Victorian-era residents to take their constitutionals along the water. An ancient La Princesa jail built outside the city walls, with original cells carefully preserved. For tours before 2pm entrance is included.
Enjoy a picturesque walk along San Juan Bay with impressive fortification walls leading to the RAICES monument, representing Puerto Rico's rich cultural heritage. Designed by Spanish artist Luis Sanguino, the Raices Fountain depicts Amerindian, African, and Spanish cultures. Explore ancient walls, garitas, and 1.9 miles of lovingly restored fortifications, a testament to Spain's dominance in the New World.
The monument to Isabella II; the "walking trees"; and the ancient original entrance to the Walled City - The Gate of San Juan.
