About Ponce Attractions & Activities

A walk through Ponce is like visiting a living architectural history museum. More than 600 of the city's 1,000 historical buildings have been lovingly renovated. Neoclassical and Spanish Colonial styles dominate with Andalusian and Moorish influences evident. Ponce has an impressive number of museums for a city of its size. In addition to history and music museums, the Ponce Museum of Art showcases one of the most extensive collections in the Caribbean. Nature lovers will find plenty to do thanks to the nearby Guanica State Forest and pristine Coffin Island. -- Kelly Boland, Contributing Writer
