Get Involved In Caribe Aquatic Adventures
Caribe Aquatic Adventures operates out of the Normandie Hotel in Puerta de Tierra, but you needn’t be a guest to use the services. This outfit does dives near San Juan, but also further afield around the islands off the coast of Fajardo (Icacos for snorkeling and Palomino and Palominito for diving). Lunch and transportation from San Juan are included in trips to Fajardo. The company’s shore dives from the beach behind the hotel are regarded as some of the best in the Caribbean.

Financial Tip Of The Day
Invite Friends Over Instead Of Going Out
Almost every activity at home is less expensive than going out. Invite some friends over and have a cookout or a potluck meal, then play some cards and have a few drinks. Everyone will have fun, the cost will be low, and the others will likely reciprocate not long afterwards.
