Drift Experiences
From underwater treasures to fitness and aqua sports, we have something for thrill-seekers of all levels.
Disconnect from the hustle and bustle of daily life, and reconnect with nature at one of DRIFT Experiences. The DRIFT team has carefully curated a series of year-round activities and events for locals and tourists alike, uncovering the beauty that awaits coast to coast (not just the uber-cool Aviones Beach). With bike rides, kayaking, snorkeling, and even expeditions to Culebra, the possibilities to explore are enough to entice anyone. Scroll below to find your next adventure (please book promptly; these sell out fast!).
Bike Rental
This beautiful scenic biking trail is located right at the heart of DRIFT. The 11-kilometer (nearly 7 mi) trail will take you past amazing beaches, mangroves, and quaint area restaurants. Transport yourself to a completely natural place, away from the busy tourist areas of Isla Verde and Condado. It’s no secret that the Piñones bike trails have been a long-time favorite among locals and tourists alike. It takes approximately two hours to bike to the end and back. You will definitely want to spend time taking pictures, explore some of the beaches and even take a swim to cool off.
Remember! Anytime you leave your bike you MUST LOCK IT UP.

Bike + Snorkeling
The experience starts exploring our beautiful bike trail, which will take you past amazing coastal scenes and mangroves, and combines some underwater fun. It’s designed to immerse guests in a completely natural ambiance, away from the busy tourist areas of Isla Verde and Condado. Along the way, the tour leader will stop at a beach site that is a semi-secret spot, designed to roam and discover a variety of marine life. Enjoy a rich underwater ecosystem complete with a pristine sandy beach, seagrass bed, the beauty of the rocky shore and breathtaking coral reefs. This beautiful location is one of the few fragments of coral reef formation on the north coast of the island.
