There are few experiences that remind us why we fell in love with travel in the first place. Vieques' bioluminescent bay—one of only three in the world—is precisely that sort of magic. After years of hosting discerning guests who've returned with tales of paddling through liquid starlight, we present a curated collection of the island's most reputable tour operators.

My wife and I stayed with Paul at the tail end of our honeymoon. Paul is amazing!
Quite honestly the best airbnb host I've had yet. He's very good at communicating -- we were in constant contact in the weeks leading up to our visit. We got a bit delayed at the airport so we arrived a little later than expected, but Paul was very accommodating. His condo is located in a nice little neighborhood with a bunch of cafes and restaurants in walking distance, and Old San Juan is a short taxi/uber ride away. If you need a recommendation, just ask Paul! He's very knowledgable of the city and has tons of info!
The condo itself is very very clean, modern, and has a nice zen vibe. You get a private bedroom (with separate keys) that has its own television and an attached private bathroom. We felt more pampered than being in a five-star hotel and more at home than our own apartment! If you're looking for a great time in San Juan, Paul is your man!
It is no secret that people in Puerto Rico know how to party, especially around the Christmas holidays. Announce that there will be a parade, music, dancing, libations, food — then add in local artisan crafts for sale — and it all adds up to one crazy celebration!
That is the San Sebastián Street Festival (Fiestas de la Calle San Sebastián) in a nutshell. It has been an annual event on Calle San Sebastián in Old San Juan since 1970, and what started as community fund-raiser has become THE festival to go to. Loads of locals and tourists attend this 4-day event.
