Cruising away from the San Juan Cruise Port

The San Juan Cruise Port is the busiest cruise port in the Caribbean. This major Puerto Rico cruise port has two embarkation terminals. one nicely situated in Old San Juan and another just a 10-minute drive from the city center.

Castillo San Felipe del Morro (also known as “El Morro”), perhaps the most iconic fortification built by the Spanish in the Americas, covers a 140 foot-high promontory at the entrance to the Bay of San Juan

This fortress consists of 6 levels facing the Atlantic Ocean, all of which were designed to create a devastating artillery fire over enemy ship. By the time of its completion around 1790, it had the reputation of being unconquerable and was the most feared of all the Spanish colonial fortifications.
