Adventures in Puerto Rico! | Destination Photographer

Back in November, Darren and I ventured down to Puerto Rico with some of the coolest folks on the planet! It was so great to take a trip with our friends and get to enjoy some awesome company!
We stayed the evenings in Fajardo, but we rented a car, so we explored quite a bit of the island. Puerto Rico has so much to offer! The culture, food, and sights were all incredible.
We took the Ferry to Culebra one day, and that was one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen!

One of my most favorite things we did (and it was one of my top ten favorite travel experiences ever!) is not pictured in this blog...it was the Bioluminescent Bay tour! We rented kayaks and took a guided tour at night into the Bio Bay. I cannot describe how amazing it was, but all I can say, is everyone should try to go experience that at some point!

Here are some of my favorite images from the trip:


El Yunque Rain Forest, so beautiful! (By the way, it's not the best idea to go hiking there mid-afternoon...you will get very, very wet.)




Visiting the San Juan National Historic Site:


There were definitely ghosts in the dungeon.





My handsome brother :)









Walking around Old San Juan:













I love these colors!



Beautiful Culebra!

Fried plantains and shark nuggets:
