Paseo del Morro, San Juan, Puerto Rico
Part of San Juan National Historic Site

What was once a maintenance road for the city wall, is now a scenic, relaxing walk along the city walls that once protected the city.  You may access Paseo del Morro from inside the walls through Calle Caleta de San Juan and Calle Clara Lair.  If you start at Paseo de La Princesa, just pass the San Juan Gate and continue on to Paseo del Morro.

Be sure to bring some water so you can have a more enjoyable and healthier walk down Paseo del Morro.  If you are coming from the city or all the way from Paseo de La Princesa, make a quick stop at the inside part of the San Juan Gate for a refreshing piragua, typically there is a stand at the corner. 

Across the bay, you can see the silhouette of Isla de Cabras.

If you love sunsets, Paseo del Morro is one of the best spots in San Juan to watch it.

Some of the most iconic images of San Juan are taken from La Rogative Square overlooking Paseo del Morro, the San Juan Gate, and Paseo de La Princesa overlooking the San Juan Bay… right at dusk the scene is truly breathtaking…

When the skies turn dark, the city walls turn to a golden glow and lanterns lead the way back towards Paseo de La Princesa or into the city through San Juan Gate for a wonderful dinner. 

If you don’t wish to walk all the way down the promenade, a really magical and romantic way to admire the city walls is by cruising on a sailboat during sunset.

The experience is so special, sailing on San Juan Bay won a spot on the coveted TripAdvisor’s Traveler’s Choice Awards – Top Sailing Tours in the World.  Surprise your loved one with this one-of-a-kind experience.  This tour won the award with great reviews.
