Description: Offering impressive views of the old city from across San Juan Bay, the Cataño Waterfront is a choice backdrop for outdoor activities and a required stop during your trip to Puerto Rico. The sprawling pedestrian walkway along Las Nereidas Avenue in the island’s smallest municipality allows visitors to enjoy a relaxing stroll through the downtown neighborhood, while taking advantage of the numerous photo opportunities along the way. Plazas with gazebos and shaded benches, fountains, and public art are strewn all over, emphasizing the continuing renovation that is taking place in the area; while a fresh ocean breeze sets the mood for the scenic portrait of Old San Juan on the other side of the bay, where the historic city’s recognizable landmarks come to life in a different light. Continually crisscrossing the harbor, the famous ‘Lancha de Cataño’ facilitates quick day trips to this often under-appreciated locale with five-minute ferry rides to and from Old San Juan – and offers perhaps the best way to enjoy a full view of the bay. |
