Everything about the beautiful island of Puerto Rico emits old-town charm and vibrant culture. Wander through the cobblestone streets of Old San Juan, sip the most delicious coffee at local street cafés while you people watch, take in the views and history from the San Juan National Historic Site (home to two, five-century-old forts), or even take some salsa classes. The options are endless for romance in Puerto Rico.
