10 Best Things To Do
on the Water in Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico is surrounded by the warm Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean — which means the island's best experiences happen on and in the water. Whether you're visiting for a week or just a weekend, here are the 10 best water activities in Puerto Rico in 2026, ranked by our team's experience.

Nothing beats a private yacht charter for the full Puerto Rico water experience. You get the boat, captain, crew, food and drinks — all to yourself. Destinations like Icacos, Palomino, Culebra and Vieques are all accessible on the same trip.

Private charters with Boating Puerto Rico start from $900 all-inclusive with captain, mate, fuel, food and drinks. With 11 boats ranging from 27ft to 82ft, there's a perfect yacht for every group size and budget.

The reef systems around Icacos Island are some of the most vibrant near Fajardo. Sea turtles, parrotfish, angelfish and countless other tropical species live in the shallow reefs. Snorkel gear is included with all our charters — no extra cost.

For the adrenaline seekers, jet ski rentals are available and can be combined with a yacht charter — we deliver them directly to your anchorage. Race across open water, explore sea caves or just blast around the cay at full speed.

Mosquito Bay in Vieques holds the Guinness World Record for the brightest bioluminescent bay on Earth. At night, dinoflagellate microorganisms make the water glow electric blue when disturbed. Kayak through it or watch from a boat — it's otherworldly.

Puerto Rico sunsets over the Caribbean are stunning. A sunset charter from Fajardo is the perfect evening activity — cold drinks on deck, warm light, and calm seas. Perfect for couples, proposals and anniversary celebrations.

Puerto Rico's offshore waters hold mahi-mahi, wahoo, tuna and blue marlin. Our fishing charters depart from San Juan and put you in position for world-class offshore fishing with experienced captains who know the productive grounds.

The Seabob is an electric underwater scooter that lets you glide through the reef like a dolphin. Add one to any charter for an unforgettable experience — especially at Icacos where you can dive right in over vibrant coral.

Our catamarans — the Leopard Power Cat 50ft and Lagoon 48ft — are the most stable and spacious way to enjoy Puerto Rico's waters. Wide decks, shade, room to spread out and smooth rides even in choppier conditions.

Add a BBQ to any charter and you've got the best floating cookout in the Caribbean. Fresh meats and sides grilled right on the boat, anchored in crystal water, with your crew. Our BBQ experience is one of the most requested upgrades.

For the ultimate Puerto Rico water experience, book an overnight or multi-day charter. Sleep on board, watch stars from the deck, wake up anchored in a private cay. Visit Culebra, Vieques and the Virgin Islands on one extended adventure.
