Vieques National Wildlife Refuge and all visitor facilities is closed due to impacts from Hurricane Irma. Refuge closures include all hiking trails, boat ramps, fishing access, and other recreational use on refuge lands. The closure remains in effect until the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service assesses storm damage and has determined it is safe for visitor access.

So calm and secluded, very beautiful. The water is very shallow, and you can swim to another small island on the coast!

So if you’re in Culebra, you probably heard of Flamenco. Maybe you haven’t heard of Culebrita island and its gorgeous beaches - and it puts Flamenco to shame. Culebrita is not your mainstream beach. You’ll need to find a reliable boat operator to take you out, preferrably one that does tours and knows thenisland inside and out. I definitely recommend Cayo Norte Boat Taxi, Captain Louis knows the place like few people do and will get you squared away. Boat ride isn’t too long (25 min) and you’ll get a beach that’s a snorkeler’s paradise as well as a bather’s delight. Crystal clear water and small rippling waves will carry you to beautiful coral reefs and tropical fish galore. Manta rays and sea turtles are not uncommon, and spotted more than a few within the first hours. Water is shallow, great for bathing, and around the island there’s diverse landscapes for everyone. Bring water, a good book, and some snacks if you plan to spend the day.

Consisting of 400 restored buildings from the 16th- and 17th-century Spanish colonial period, this area in San Juan is steeped in history with an old-world and romantic European charm.

Old San Juan is beyond charming. There is so much history here, great architecture, landmarks, cobblestone streets, wonderful food, great museums, El Morro and San Cristobol, beautiful parks and plazas and lovely residential streets. We walked everywhere but also rode the free trolley. There are three trolley lines that will take you almost anywhere in the old city. A good place to begin is to stop at one of the many Tourist Information Centers. We found the one directly across from Pier One to be the most helpful. Here we got a list of museums and their hours as well as a self guided walking tour and directions to take the ferry to Casa Bacardi. Don't miss the San Juan Gate, Fortaleza Street, the cathedral, the San Juan Historic Cemetery and the Paseo de la Princesa. Enjoy!

I've taken numerous Bio Bay trips over the years and each has been wonderful; this year we went on the clear kayaks and it was the best yet as you can see the fireworks directly below you. Go when there is little moonlight. The moon rises 50 minutes later each day, so viewing is good to excellent starting 3 or 4 days after the full moon up until the last few days before the next full moon. BTW: streetlights on the south side of the island are being replaced w/ red lights to help nesting turtles and also benefits Bio Bay.

Visit the Angel Ramos Foundation Science and Visitor Center which includes interactive exhibits. Enjoy the amazing view from the observation deck and don't forget the auditorium and souvenir shop.

I specifically wanted to visit here and planned a day around it. It is easy to do this along with the Cuevo del Indio and the Cueva de la Ventana if you plan it (I only half planned it and missed the Ventana because the tours were overbooked by the time I got there). If you come here by yourself and are not familiar with "island driving" on narrow roads where you have to be mindful all the time, often have to pull a little off the road to let oncoming traffic pass, etc., then the drive is going to be a little harrowing. There is no alternate route. If this doesn't sound like something you want to do, then I suggest using a tour company. Second thing - do the right thing and just put your phone in airplane mode before entering the observatory area. You can deal without getting texts for an hour, and since so many people use cameras on their phones it would be a shame if so many people ignored the rule not to talk or text that they had to ban all cell phones from the place. I really enjoyed my visit here, though I didn't really have a lot to learn in the "museum" area there are a few interactive displays that are really cool even if you already know the information, and the film about the construction and usage of the telescope is worth seeing. You get nice views of the dish and collector, and afterward you can watch James Bond Golden Eye, or the movie Contact and recognize things you were just looking at.

This beach on the northwest coast offers an interesting combination of mild waters, perfect for families with children, and rough water perfect for surfers, plus opportunities for fishing, snorkeling, scuba diving, wind surfing and canoeing.

Great beach for hanging out. There's lots of food choices nearby and soon they are opening brand new bathroom and concession facilities. Beach itself is nice because there's a relatively protected area where you aren't subjected to the bigger waves or if you are after more adventure you can get that too. **Make sure to wear water shoes** there are lots of sea urchins on the rocks.
