Create unforgettable memories with us.
Outdoor Recreation at Fort Buchanan is your all-in-one destination for adventure, relaxation, and quality time outdoors. Whether planning a unit event or family gathering or just looking to explore Puerto Rico's beauty, we offer the gear, facilities, and experiences to make it happen.
Your Adventure Starts Here
Our Equipment Checkout Center provides everything you need, from weekend camping trips to backyard parties. Rent kayaks and paddle boards for a day on the water, pick up tents and lanterns for your next camping trip or grab giant outdoor games for some backyard fun. We also offer sports gear, picnic supplies, party machines like popcorn and cotton candy makers, and even dunk tanks and inflatables to level up your events.
Looking to host a group activity? We offer several outdoor spaces for rent, including the Cabaña Picnic Area (ideal for large groups), the cozy Coquí Gardens, and the tranquil gazebos at Las Casas Lake. These spaces are perfect for birthdays, unit morale days, or laid-back weekend hangouts.
