Cruise from San Juan

We all want to find that ideal vacation spot. We want a place that is distinctive yet relaxing, where you can feel at ease while still experiencing a wide array of unique adventures. It needs to be relatively close — no more than a short plane ride away. And it should be filled with fun and flavors and natural beauty and amazing people. Great news — we've found it! Start in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and continue aboard an epic Virgin Voyages Caribbean cruise. Read on to find out the best things to do in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Puerto Rico’s capital is a gorgeous door that grants you access to a diverse and wondrous island. The city itself is packed with picturesque beaches and streets lined with pastel-colored houses, historic Spanish architecture and coconut rum drinks, a burgeoning art scene and a dynamic culinary reputation. Here you can stroll along cobblestone streets to high-end stores, feel what it was like to defend a historic fort and feast on a delicious blend of Caribbean, African and Spanish flavors.

Beyond the city, you’ll find a paradise that is easy to explore and enjoy. The entire country is about the size of Connecticut, yet it can still boast nearly 300 beaches, a bioluminescent bay and a rain forest — a geological treasure trove made all the richer thanks to nearly perfect weather year-round.

A short flight away, San Juan is the ideal place to launch your cruise vacation.

Now you can experience all that Puerto Rico has to offer by starting your Virgin Voyages cruise vacation from the capital city. Virgin Voyages launches several of their adults-only cruises from San Juan — a short flight from the States — allowing you to experience fewer sea days while venturing on unique itineraries you won’t find on sailings departing from Florida or Texas.

You could spend a few days in San Juan before the cruise, exploring the sun-drenched locale at your leisure. Blend history with cocktails while touring Old San Juan to learn about the historic old city while stopping along the way to try tropical drinks. Or explore gorgeous El Yunque rainforest, the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Park System, where you’ll find more than 240 species of plants and wildlife, waterfalls, streams and trails.

From the conveniently located San Juan cruise port, hop on board your Virgin Voyages ship to visit Aruba, Curaçao, Martinique and St. Kitts & Nevis on their 7-night Sunsets in the Lesser Antilles voyage. Or maybe the 7-night Saint (Isles) & Seas of the Caribbean sailing hits more of your bucket-list destinations, roundtripping from San Juan to visit the British Virgin Islands, Barbados, St. Lucia, Antigua and St. Maarten.
