Puerto Rico is an increasingly popular student travel destination, and it’s not hard to see why! An archipelago in the Caribbean Sea, Puerto Rico is home to an overwhelming abundance of natural beauty and a vibrant culture that’s charismatic, hospitable and passionate.
An ideal destination for Spanish classes, history and music performance groups, Puerto Rico is an immersive destination your students will be talking about for years to come. There’s also year-round tropical weather, allowing your students to soak up the sunshine no matter what time of year you decide to travel.
It’s here that students could swim or kayak in a Bioluminescent Bay, be surrounded by nature in El Yunque National Forest, tour Old San Juan, enjoy a boat tour of La Parguera’s Mangrove Cays, participate in various community service activities, explore the city of Ponce and its art museum (Museo de Arte de Ponce) and more.
Students could also perform at a number of venues (including universities, churches, schools and other public spaces), take salsa lessons and even participate in a meaningful musical performance exchange with a local school!
One of the best parts? As the island is a territory of the United States, there’s no passport required, making it a breeze for you and your students to get there and simply enjoy all this Caribbean gem has to offer.
