What part are you going to? There are so so many fun thing to do. My husband is from Humacao and we go back every 2 years. Old San Juan is fun to go too. Wear comfortable shoes. The FOOD is amazing. Especially if you drive by the coast and just stop at the little shops on the side of the road.
I hope you have a great time! It is my favorite place in the world!

basically what you mentioned, the beach, mountain trips, horse riding, scuba diving and 1 or 2 water parks, clubbing and walking around san juan, go to see the arecibo observatory and the arecibo lighthouse and lots of museums, bacardi factory and el yunque waterfall. other than that their isnt much to do but natural stuff.

GO TO CULEBRA! It is a little island off of the East Coast of PR, and it is lovely! You can catch a ferry or you can take an airplane. The one we used was Air Flamenco. If you go, go to Flamenco Beach and go snorkeling. It was voted one of the ten most beautiful beaches by Conde Nast traveler mag. We stayed at a little inn on the beach that was owned by the Gutierrez family. The locals will know what I am talking about. If you are in Culebra for a meal, Mamacita's is awesome! Great locals bar scene too!

Also, go to Old San Juan and see the forts. Shopping is fun there too, and there is an excellent restaurant in Old San Juan called Barrachina. They claim to have invented the Pina Colada! The ambiance is great and the food is too!

We went to El Junque Rainforest as well and did dome hiking. It was pretty neat, but not my favorite thing we did!

Puerto Rico was my favorite Carribean island I have been to. You will have a wonderful time!

The biobay tour is fantastic, I have gone on it myself with visiting family. If you are going to Vieques to take the tour, make sure it is not a full moon, the tour doesn't run during full moons. I would suggest at least 2 days in Vieques and a rental car, they have some of the most beautiful unspoiled tourquois waters in Puerto Rico. But the beach isn't the only thing to see in PR. Make sure to take the tour of the Camuey Caverns in western PR, they are a natural wonder to behold. And don't forget the rainforest, El Yunque, there are places to stay right in the rainforest that have trails to waterfalls. This is the link for you to find places to stay in El Yunque, with a place for every budget http://www.elyunque.com/lodging.html . Then of course there is Old San Juan and all it's historical sights, but to tell you the truth I find that to many tourists waste way to much time in the city. Puerto Rico has soooo much more to offer than urban sprawl. Take Fajardo for instance, there are a series of keys that provide world class snorkling, check out this link for a private sailboat charter that takes you out for a full day http://www.egbc.net/ . Or this one is a cataraman tour that includes lunch and guided snorkling tours, http://www.eastwindcats.com/pages/daysailing_excursion.html . But guess what it isn't just beaches in PR, no way there is the entire center of the Island which is mountains. It's by far my favorite, take the scenic drive through the central region, stop in the small towns and have lunch. Go to the Torro ***** nature reserve and swim in cool clean waters, or hike to a tower that gives you a 360 degree panaramic view of the island. Whatever you choose to do you will have a great time, I love Puerto Rico and if you get out of the city, and see the real Island I know you will love it too.

you can stay in naguabo one of the most active fishing village in the east of the island and in my guest house.
