...to tour, just lounge on a beach.? Sorry, I'm talking about near San Juan, Puerto Rico. I will be traveling with my parents (active 70's and my children who range in age from 8 to 14.
I received some suggestions but, how far away are these beaches? How much to taxis cost in San Juan? Should we try to arrange in advance with Royal Caribbean since there are eight of us?
 
Just ask a cab driver to take you to one of these beaches.

Condado Beach - San Juan, Puerto Rico
It's a favorite of tourists from all over, and the location isn't the only reason. Condado sits just beyond Gran Ventana al Mar plaza, and the nicest section fronts the San Juan Marriot Resort & Stellaris Casino.

Just east of Condado, there's the beautiful curved Ocean Park Beach. This beach is two miles long - but because of the gated community here, it's hard to find the entrance to the beach. Take the narrow walk at Park Boulevard and you'll find Ocean Park Beach. It's a fun beach to tan, but because of the tradewinds, the water is choppy making it perfect for kiteboarders.

Another one, El Escambron, a Blue Flag Beach just a half-mile from here with fantastic views of the fortress in Old San Juan. Escambron is really alive on the weekends, with the locals playing dominoes. El Escambron has a great area for snorkel as well.

Enjoy)
