Car Class Recommendations

An economy or compact car is ideal if you mostly plan on city driving within San Juan. However, if you’re planning on exploring the mountains and coastlines, a larger car or SUV is recommended for more comfort and power.

Gas Stations near the Airport

You can find numerous petrol stations near the airport. For instance, Puma San Juan and Total are less than a 10-minute drive from the airport. Please note that petrol is sold in litres, unlike in the UK where it is sold in gallons.

Accessibility and Driving Routes

The airport is conveniently located with various routes connecting the airport to the rest of the island. One of these roads is the PR-26 which heads to Old San Juan and the city centre.

Local Climate

Puerto Rico enjoys a tropical climate, so unlike the unpredictable British weather, here you can expect warmth and sunshine all year round. The average temperature stays around 28 degrees Celsius.

Currency

Unlike the UK that uses Pounds, Puerto Rico, being a US territory, uses the United States Dollar. It can be handy to have a bit of loose change for tips and small purchases.

Surrounding Cities

When in Puerto Rico, don't just stick to one spot. The charming city of Old San Juan, the historic town of Ponce, and the surfing paradise Rincón are all less than two hours away.
