El Morro: El Morro, Calle Norzagaray, Old San Juan- Its real name is Fuerte San Felipe del Morro, but locals just call this massive fortress El Morro. The name means 'the promontory,' and refers to its location on a rocky peninsula extending into the Atlantic. The breathtaking setting makes it the city's most popular attraction, so things can get crowded when cruise-ship passengers pack into its towers, tunnels, and turrets. (Getting here early in the day is a good idea—as well as escaping the crowds, you'll avoid the worst of the heat.) Every bit as interesting is the city's other fort, Fuerte San Cristóbal. The only thing it doesn't have is the crowds. Consider visiting this one, located on the eastern end of Calle Norzagaray.

El Yunque Rain Forest: El Yunque, Río Grande- This 28,000-acre rain forest, about 25 miles east of San Juan, has dozens of well-marked trails (graded for difficulty) that lead to waterfalls, observation towers, and swimming holes. Most hotels arrange guided tours, but the park is easy to explore on your own, as there's only one major road. For a decent map or to talk with rangers about which trails you might try, stop at El Portal, the information center at the park's entrance. You can also catch a documentary here on the cotorras, the endangered indigenous green parrots that are slowly making a comeback.
