  San Juan : Profile

Location

Old San Juan is most attractive with its cobble streets lined with pastel Spanish Colonial-style houses.

Position 18°28’N, 66°07’W.

Clearance

One should notify customs and immigration on arrival, which can be done by telephone from the Club Nautico or San Juan Bay Marina. This is preferable to going to the Customs House, where the officials are busy with cruise ships and commercial vessels. They prefer to come and clear yachts at the club or the marina.
