| As part of the Caribbean Biodiversity Hotspot, and a BirdLife´s Endemic Bird Area (EBA 029 - Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands), Puerto Rico is a small paradise for birders. Whether you are exploring our national territory on your own or with one of our Guides, these half day birding trips are the perfect option if you are short of time or if you want to combine different scenarios. |
| We are a full-licensed birding operator with all permits from the Government (Certified Tour Guide/Driver, vehicles) to offer our services islandwide. |

Half-day birding trips are the perfect alternative for those with
limited time. We have included several islandwide options
depending on the species of bird you want to see.
limited time. We have included several islandwide options
depending on the species of bird you want to see.
- El Yunque National Forest - Only a 45 minute drive
from San Juan, El Yunque is a most see nature wonder.
We have special permits to go to the Forest before and
after the gates are open/close to the general public. On
previous birding trips we have spotted 16 of our 17
endemic species.
- Eastern Region - Low elevations and strong winds off
the ocean are responsible for Puerto Rico´s second
subtropical dry forest area. Six endemics species, plus
eastern tip specialties: Antillean Crested Hummingbird
and Green-throated Carib.
- Caguas - Consider part of the Eastern-Central Region,
the town of Caguas is located 30 minutes from San Juan
which makes it an excellent option for late departure
cruise ships or flights.
- North Belt Region - Puerto Rico has two major karst
regions, northern and southern. The northern karst
covers an imaginary line from San Juan International
Airport to Aguadilla/Punta Borinquen International
Airport. Three half-day birding trips within this region:
Old San Juan, San Juan/Piñones, and Arecibo. Looking
for our Parrot? This is the best option.
- West / Southwest - This is home of three of our rarest
birds: Elfin Woods Warbler, Yellow-shouldered Blackbird,
and Nightjar. Except for the Parrot, 16 out of 17 endemic
species are found in this region. The diversity of habitat
allows us to suggest six alternatives: Cartagena Lagoon,
Salt Flats, Maricao, Guánica, Mayagüez, and Guajataca.
If you want to see all the
endemic species, we
suggest a full-day
birding trip or the
Western Endemic Bird
Trail. You can also
combine two options.
A night option is
available for the
Nightjar.
