This video shows local attractions and landmarks along the drive from the Aguadilla Marriott Courtyard luxury hotel to the nearby San Antonio Technology Park. To read the signs, watch in full-screen, HD mode.

Traffic conditions are representative. In Puerto Rico, all drivers should be very alert for road hazards and bad drivers despite the large numbers of traffic police evident everywhere.

The beautiful Aguadilla Marriott Courtyard hotel is the former base hospital for the former Ramey Air Force Base closed in 1973. The drive starts at the hotel, turns onto Belt Road, proceeds to Hanger Road, proceeds to Wing Road, and connects onto San Antonio Road - also known as PR 110.

The Marriott Courtyard is located here: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=13165+Paseo+P... , and has a superb pool .

The San Antonio Technology Park is located here: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=13165+Paseo+P... .

After the return trip, you will visit a wonderful outside road-side fruit stand located under the tree located here: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=13165+Paseo+P... .

Contrabandos restaurant in San Antonio is located here: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=13165+Paseo+P... . Muchas gracias to Tony and Harry for introducing me to this wonderful place and its inexpensive, exquisite skirt steak and incomparable yellow rice dishes - try the ham and rice if you can.....

Luna Marina and Ocean Front restaurants in Isabella are located here: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=13165+Paseo+P... .

Playa Jobos (beach) is located here: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=13165+Paseo+P... . Playa Jobos can have dangerous currents and the Coast Guard provides more rescues to this beach than any other Puerto Rico Beach.

Iguanas are located nearly everywhere.

  • El Contrabando - They change the rice side dish recipes every day and they were all good. But the yellow rice with ham was my favorite.

  • Man this brought back memoriesI gre up in Boston, MA but spent every summer with my dad in Aguadilla (san antonio) haven't been there in like 15yrs funny thing tho my dad lived but still own a the house across the street from the parents of the owner of El Contrabando I rmemebr him as a child LOL cant believe how much that place has changed !!!

  • @juvaholics Interesting reaction. Since all legal Puerto Rico citizens are what you call "American", how are you planning to motivate all your friends and neighbors to leave? Better yet, when are you leaving and where are you going to?

  • If you come visit this area definitely stop by the restaurant he mentions at the end in San Antonio, El Contrabando. They make the best Pasteles (typical food) you can eat. Only on Friday and Sundays do they have the Pasteles, with arroz con gandules and lechón asado!!!

  • omg its so nice to see my neighborhood in PR, I almost cried lmao... i had lots of fun while in PR. I use to go to the casino in the hotel all the time. So much that they started 2 give me free stuff and already knew my life story lol.. good times <3

  • This guy's voice is the BEST. I'm still trying to figure out what he's saying at 6:43 when the car in front stops to pick someone up.

    I lived on Ramey AFB as a child back in 71-72 and really enjoyed seeing how it looks now. It's still very green and has those huge hedges which were ubiquitous when I lived there. I miss the lovely flowering shrubs, the mango trees and the coffee bean trees us kids used to climb!

    Thanks for sharing this vid!

  • lol its funny I been in that hotel and the first time I went out and I was in the way back to the hotel we got lost lol...I find this funny the part when it says "notice that Puerto Rican Roads can be very rough , ohh yeahh there you go" haha man that made me laugh because its so true.
