Puerto Rico was ceded by Spain to the United States in 1898, under the Treaty of Paris that ended the Spanish-American War. Its status remains a self-governing U.S. territory, making it an easily accessible tourist magnate for stateside sun worshipers; no passport is necessary, there are no customs formalities, the U.S. dollar is the local currency, and U.S. Post Offices and retail stores are found everywhere.
