Known as "the city that guards the sun of the Caribbean" (La Metrópolis del Sol Naciente), Fajardo is on the east coast of Puerto Rico, north of [wiki=99ebbdb5b573d898332ccff1188d04f5]Ceiba[/wiki] and east of [wiki=1c33d51fbcef8437da82362e533773ad]Luquillo[/wiki].
One of the main attractions is the Bio-Luminescent Bay. A 1.5 hour tour, you will kayak in through a Mangrove forest at night to the bay, where luminescent plankton glow bright blue every time the water is disturbed. Most tours cost $45, and combo packages with tours of El Yunque Rainforest are available and quite a good full-day trip.

Depending on traffic, it's about a 45 minute drive from the airport in San Juan to get to Fajardo.
