Creator's Key Takeaways

as far as I'm concerned this is one of the most interesting views you'll ever get from a cruise ship in the Caribbean

I'm Jim Zim I've been on 35 cruises so far and I've sailed into San Juan many times before but I just never get tired of this view

the easier way is to grab one of the free trolley that stops right across the street from the cruise ships and will take you right to elmor's front door

if you're tired of cruise ship food by this point in your cruise head across the street to Senior Frogs bar and restaurant

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Take the free trolley to visit El Morro fort
βœ“Visit Senior Frogs for Mexican food not available on cruise ships

YouTube Video Description↓

Here's the view from a cruise ship as you sail in to one of the most interesting ports in the Caribbean: San Juan, Puerto Rico. There is so much history here! I'll show you Castillo San Felipe del Morro... otherwise known as the old fort, El Morro... give you a nice view of all the historic buildings you see as you sail in to San Juan Bay... give you a little history lesson about attacks against San Juan... and pass along a few tips for people cruising in to this port. I shot this video from the deck of Royal Caribbean's "Anthem Of The Seas" cruise ship... but, of course, the view would be pretty much the same no matter what ship you cruised in to the harbor on!
