OVERVIEWLocated in Puerto Rico's southeast coast, just 45 minutes from San Juan, The Palmas del Mar Yacht Club is a state-of-the-art megayacht full-service marina. Situated in a gated luxury resort that stretches over 2,700 acres, the resort is bordered by 3 miles of sandy beaches and the nearby US National Park Rainforest. Just 15 miles from the Spanish Virgin Islands, PDMYC offers world-class amenities and unspoiled fishing grounds. Marked by lavish homes and gardens, shopping, dining and entertainment, the marina is frequented year-round by an impressive array of megayachts, sport fishers and pleasure boats alike, and is also home to the International Grand Slam Billfish Tournament in June.

ARRIVINGA safe approach to the marina entrance is due west, aligned with the entrance channel and easily accessible if you are coming either from the north (Atlantic), south (Caribbean), or east from the Virgin Islands. Puerto Rico is the entrance gate to the West Indies from Europe, and is the perfect approach for those cruising from the US and Bahamas to the eastern Caribbean. For those arriving by air, the SJU International Airport is just 45 minutes by direct highway. Direct flights times are 2 ½ hours from Miami, 3 ½ hours from New York, 4 ½ hours to Dallas and 7 ½ hours to Madrid. Roosevelt Roads Airport is 20 minutes away for private and charter planes.

ABOUT PUERTO RICOAn island of 100 x 35 miles in the center of the Antillean Arc, Puerto Rico is essentially a crossroads of European, Hispanic and Anglo cultures, with a population of 4,000,000. Discovered by Columbus in 1493 and built by Ponce De Leon in 1521, the walled city of San Juan is the second in the New World and the oldest in the US. The colonial city has several National Historical Sites, as the oldest government mansion still in use, the Cathedral and El Morro and San Cristobal fortresses. A US territory since 1898, Puerto Ricans became US citizens in 1917. Both the Trade Winds and Caribbean Breezes influence an ideal weather with temperatures averaging 85F in summer and 80F in winter, going down to 70 in the mountains. Hurricane season runs from June to November with highs in August and September. Modern construction and infrastructure helps Puerto Rico to sustain damages from hurricanes, making it the safest place in the Caribbean. Puerto Rico welcomes 4,000,000 tourists a year, half of which are cruise ship passengers, making it the principal port of call in the Caribbean. Filled with eco and adventure tours, rainforests, dining, night life, casinos, boutiques and national brand shopping centers make a visit to Puerto Rico a unique experience.

LANGUAGE AND CURRENCYBoth English and Spanish are the official languages of Puerto Rico. The US Dollar is the used currency, and foreign currency can be exchanged in any of several local, national and international banks, as Puerto Rico is the financial center of the Caribbean.
