Your driver picks you up from your San Juan hotel in an air-conditioned vehicle. Sit back and enjoy the scenic drive east through Puerto Rico toward El Yunque.

Charco El Hippie is located on the south side of El Yunque National Forest along the Rio Blanco. Travelers experience the rainforest ecosystem, tropical vegetation, and river systems that flow from Puerto Rico's only tropical rainforest.

Swim in crystal-clear natural pools beneath a waterfall on the Rio Blanco, surrounded by massive boulders and lush jungle on the south side of El Yunque. Depending on your experience level, explore hidden caves and rapids within the rock formations, hike upstream through dense jungle to a powerful hidden waterfall, or relax poolside and take in the scenery. Your guide shares the history of the area and leads you to ancient Taíno petroglyphs carved into riverside boulders by Puerto Rico's indigenous people centuries ago.

Stop at one of Puerto Rico's most iconic Caribbean boardwalks featuring over 30 seafood restaurants and kiosks. Try the local specialty pastelillos de chapín, enjoy fresh-caught fish and mofongo with ocean views, browse local vendors, and see the historic Victorian mansions along the waterfront promenade.
