How Much Data Do You Need in Puerto Rico?

For a long weekend in San Juan, 3-5GB covers navigation, social media, and messaging comfortably. Week-long trips exploring multiple regions typically need 5-10GB, especially if you're using maps frequently for road trips to destinations like Cabo Rojo or the Arecibo Observatory area. Heavy users streaming music, uploading videos, or working remotely should consider 10GB or more.
