Before the city wakes, San Juan Bay stretches like a glass sheet, the sea pulling light from the horizon and handing it to the cobbled ramparts of Old San Juan. Riders meet their guide as the first gulls argue overhead; within minutes the jet ski answers the bay’s invitation and the water pushes you forward, carrying views of El Morro’s stone face and pastel facades receding like a filmstrip.
