SPORT & SEASON
Baseball in winter, basketball in summer, and surf on the city beaches when the north swell arrives.
Estadio Hiram Bithorn
The Roberto Clemente winter baseball league plays from November into January, with major-league prospects on the roster and tickets in the low tens of dollars.
Coliseo Roberto Clemente
The BSN basketball league fills the Hato Rey arena from spring into summer; the Cangrejeros de Santurce are the local side and the crowd is loud.
Winter surf, Isla Verde
North swells run roughly November to March and break at La Ocho and Pine Grove. Board hire and lessons are sold on the beach.
Puerto Rico Open golf
A PGA Tour event is played each spring on the coast east of the city, around forty minutes out. Grounds tickets are cheap by tour standards.
