Holidays are something Britons can now only fantasise about as all travel grinds to a halt due to coronavirus. The holiday experience doesn’t need to evaporate altogether though. The tourism board for Caribbean island Puerto Rico is here to help despondent Britons get into the holiday spirit this weekend.
The island’s tourism board explains that, when the coronavirus nightmare is over, visitors to Puerto Rico will have plenty to explore there.
“They can put their new salsa dancing skills to the test or sample some of the best cocktails and island dishes.”
This is what you need to know about the weekend’s schedule.
