Huge caves... worth the trip!
Absolutely the best rum on the island... skip the Bacardi tour and do this one... it’s not free, but the tour is far more personal. Pick up the 3-star bottles (~$40/bt)... great for sipping or cocktails!

Great alternate route to go to Luquillo... especially if you arrive early. Exit the airport and turn right at the 26 (Oeste/West-San Juan/Isla Verde) sign. Stay in the right lane and follow 187 towards Pinones & Loiza to Rio Grande where you meet up with RT3, just before El Verde BBQ. Beautiful coastal route and plenty of places to stop for a bite and drinks.

Must stop as you exit 66 onto RT3 heading towards the condo... spit cooked chicken and pork, ribs, fried pork, chicken sausage, and rice and gandules. Piña Colada... don’t recommend asking for with Don Q 151 (it is not the nasty clear stuff!).

Good to combine with Bio Bay tour since they leave from nearby. Cute place and excellent criollo food with a twist.

Transportation
A rental car is recommended as taxis and rideshares can have varying degrees of reliability. Rent from one of the agencies located at the airport... a definite time saver. Getting a taxi to and from the airport is usually not a problem.
