    Fantastic old world fortress meets new world views

    There isn't a bad view in this place, we only had a few hours to visit both forts and enjoyed both. Note to show your receipt at the second fort, as the price is included.

    Incredible Mediterranian Sea Views from an Old Fortress

    An inspiring trip up to the amazing centuries-old fortress with a cool breeze and lovely views of the deep-blue shiny sea. The tour inside the fortress is quite educational in terms of the Puerto Rican history and its unique culture.

    Amazing.

    The views are amazing. This might sound weird but check out the view from the bathrooms!!! Don't forget to look around the grassy area at the entrance for the iguanas.
