I'm traveling with my three boys ages 9, 9, 7. Looking for something fun to do. We have never been to san juan. Any absolute must dos in this port?

The two forts! Long uphill walk or crowded free trolley, or short taxi ride. Bring or buy a small kite to fly at El Morro.

 

Then find a vendor in one of the plazas for a piragua (flavored shaved ice). You'll see then in little wheeled yellow/red carts.

Other than the forts - beach, zip line or rainforest

Most of the ships have an excursion to the El Yunque rainforest to see the monkeys. I would either do this or visit the El Morro fort. You can see a beach at another port, but you won't get a chance to see blue cobblestones anywhere else!

Monkeys?? Surely you must have confused Puerto Rico with St. Kitts. I have never seen monkeys in El Yunque and outside the Lajas valley on the south-west part of the island (where there is a small, wild community of them). You can maybe seePuerto Rican parrots at El Yunque. Maybe...lol!!
