Beaches questions

[39august]

Which beach area is closer to the cruise pier in downtown SJ, please? Condado or Isla Verde? I know Escambron is the closest, but we need to go where jet skis and parasailing are offered. Is this available at Escambron?

I can help you with one of your questions. Condado is closest to pier area (5-10 minutes by taxi) and Isle Verde is next (10 - 20 minutes depending on traffic of course)

Sorry, havaen't heard of Escambron. Richard is correct in that Condado is closest to the piers and Isla Verde is next. Isla Verde is closer to the airport, but does have a beautiful beach.

The beach right in front of the Marriott Resort and Stelaris Casino in Condado has jet skis rental, is more crowded and have lots of activities, is closer to the pier and downtown (cab ride from pier to Condado costs 10USD). Isla Verde beach is further away, more sandy white, but we did not see jet ski rentals there. Also, just for comparison, cost of cab ride from pier to Old San Juan is 6USD. San Juan is a very beautiful place, have fun!
