Puerto Rico is a magnificent island. Its location couldn't be better. With Airports on both sides of the Island it is not only an easy and inexpensive destination it is also the Caribbean's hub for many other islands. From Puerto Rico you and get almost anywhere.

Beach diving is accessible, there are many beaches with live coral and spectacular views. Depth however can be a challenge while most of the water surrounding the island can be shallow. If you are looking to vacation and solely beach dive I don't recommend Puerto Rico unless you make prior arrangements with a guide. Locations can be difficult to find and many hours may be wasted searching for the best spots.   Boat diving around the island is spectacular however. Numerous islands surround Puerto Rico and offer some of the best diving in the Caribbean.

Islands such as Mona, Vieques, Culebra and Desacheyo attract divers from all four corners of the world. There are many other destinations within a short  flight as well, St Thomas, St Croix, St Johns and the British Virgin Islands are less then a 30 minute flight away. Many major airlines fly to these spots however I recommend the sea plane out of San Juan or any of the smaller charters. Costs are the same and you cant beat the view and service of a small business.

Puerto Rico itself has many other amazing sites. El Yunque Rain Forrest, Arrecebo Observatory, Camuy Caves, and Old Town San Juan are all great locations to explore while on the surface.
