Puerto Rico - Day 4

Today we woke up and directly went to beach walk. It was our breakfast our day, we went to a very fancy place on Isla Verde. Food was unique and tasty! Walk to castle through stunning old San Juan  Bobba is must! We got ready and headed to castle visits. Both the castles in old San Juan are along ocean, built by local Indian people and then taken over by Spanish people. They are huge and in good space. Views and structure is breathtaking! We booked an underwater walking tour ( introductory scuba) so we went there in the afternoon. I was scared in the beginning but did it later in second round. They give bread in your hand so lots of fishes come near you, it was amazing experience. The resort where it was located was very beautiful! We ended our day by exploring Condado area and eating Asian food! Again the food was great! Day 5 link http://ourweekendsdiary.blogspot.com/2023/02/puerto-rico-day-5.html
