The Green Path: Empowering Responsible Travelers

As Earth Day approaches, Discover Puerto Rico is launching The Green Path, a groundbreaking microsite designed to educate and engage visitors on sustainable tourism practices.

At the heart of this initiative is a certification program that guides users through four sustainability pillars, each tailored to different aspects of conscious travel. These pillars include:

  • The Foodprint – Exploring local farms, markets, and eco-gastronomic practices.
  • Legacy Journey – Preserving Puerto Rico’s heritage through architecture, culture, and stories.
  • Nature Paths – Highlighting the Island’s biodiversity and outdoor eco-adventures.
  • Conscious Stays – Showcasing responsible accommodations and low-impact lodging options.

Each pillar’s landing page features a rich collection of immersive content designed to inspire and inform travelers. Highlights include:

* A first-person chronicle offering a personal lens into on-Island experiences

* Feature articles and listicles covering sustainable travel, local dining, and cultural insights

* An interactive map with vivid descriptions to help navigate Puerto Rico

As users progress through the microsite, they earn points and insights along the way. Upon reaching an 80% completion score, they receive a downloadable and shareable badge recognizing them as certified “Responsible Travelers to Visit Puerto Rico.”

This certification also unlocks access to exclusive deals and discounts from local partners offering experiences and accommodations aligned with sustainable tourism practices.

“We designed The Green Path as a modern approach to education and engagement,” said Dalissa Zeda, Digital Marketing Director at Discover Puerto Rico.
