What to do in Puerto Rico when it rains.
We won't lie. Puerto Rico gets pretty rainy.
The country experiences precipitation almost every day, but the good news is that storms come and go quickly and never stay for too long. If a storm is approaching, enter a café, order something to drink, and wait for it to pass. Another option is to visit a museum, such as the Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico or the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Puerto Rico.
We recommend having a few backup itineraries ready in case it rains while you're there. Better to be safe than trapped in a café with nothing to do!
