Acampa Excursion Cancelled. What to do?

[Mandy1021]

We are flying in a day early so we could do the full day Toro Negro waterfall rapel, zip lining & hike with Acampa which we booked early this year and we just got an email stating they are still without power and the adventure site of their rainforest is totally destroyed so they need to cancel which is unfortunate but totally understandable.

 

So now we are left with an entire day FREE to do something. Does anyone have any recommendations? Something similar to Acampa, adventure-wise. We were going to tour the forts when we returned from our cruise but I understand they are closed as well because they are without power so my question is will there be anything we can do?

 

Other than that if someone could recommend some awesome bakeries (my weakness) or local restaurants (with good beers- my boyfriend's weakness :P) I think that might be fun. We are staying at acacia boutique if that helps.

 

Hoping someone can recommend something before we leave next week! :).

Not very similar to what you had planned, but, as far as I can tell the Flyboarding on Luquillo Beach is up and running. They will provide transportation if you call them since they are not close to where you are staying.

 

Here is their website if you are interested: http://www.luquilloflyboard.com/

La Mallorca for the bakery. We went to 2 bakeries in Old San Juan last year, buying quesitos - love, love quesitos. I think La Mallorca was one of the 2 places. But you can't go wrong with any place in Old San Juan.

Thank you both for the suggestions! :). I think I've heard of la mallorca in older threads, definitely will have to check it out!

This is different too but I see East Island Excursions is up and running with day snorkel trips to Culebra. http://www.eastislandpr.com/

San Juan National Historic Site reopens the doors of Castillo San Cristóbal to the public

:D :p :D

It is with gratitude and enthusiasm that from Monday, 20 November 2017, the national historic site of San Juan announces its reopening, beginning with opening the doors of st. Christopher's castle to the public.

 

The Castle San Felipe del morro will remain closed until the electrical service is restored. The entrance to san cristóbal will be free of charge while you have limited access to the facilities, so we invite you to enjoy, explore and reconnect with our cultural heritage and world heritage.

 

Strength, splendor, resilience. It is with these values and characteristics that we can well describe what historical fortifications represent, and it is also what we hope to inspire and provoke in everyone who visits us, while moving together towards recovery.

 

Stay tuned to our social networks, since we will soon be sharing our special reopening programming!
