Vieques

Absolutely stunning island. What a special place to visit in the world. Highly recommend making this part of your Puerto Rico trip or considering over more typical Caribbean islands. Also, support local businesses - you don’t need to buy food on the mainland! There is plenty here and it’s a great way to strengthen the local economy. Sit back relax and enjoy phenomenal sunsets, beaches, local food and abundant domestic-wildlife!!

After a long day on the Island and before going into night activities , get a to go meal and enjoy at Caracas beach while watching one of the angles of our sunsets

The biobay is a great wonder. There's plenty to do on the island, although it is rather small. Lots of good eats and all the service from restaurants were friendly and helpful. The sunsets are breathtaking, but make sure to bring bug spray because the mosquitoes are out heavy during that time. There are many wild horses and chickens running around. There were a lot of negative things to say about the fairy when I did some research, but I found that it wasn't bad at all. It actually seemed quite organized despite the forums. We traveled on Thanksgiving day. We stayed at Blue Horizon, which had the most beautiful view, but do not come here for luxury. Make sure to rent a or scooter early, a couple weeks beforehand . We stayed in Elsperanza and drove the coastline, stopping at different beaches.

An incredible island still somewhat damaged by hurricane Maria but recovering nicely. Beautiful beaches and a beautiful people with strong spirits and kind hearts. Please come here and support this island paradise. Some of the most amazing sunsets I have witnessed in Puerto Rico. Make sure to do the bio bay tour it’s awesome to witness.

Shhhh. This island is a secret and magical place. Please don’t tell anyone. Pristine beaches with differing topography at each one. If you’re looking for a beautiful sunset, calm waters filled with shallow water snorkeling, black sand or amazing cliff side photo ops, Vieques has it all. You can move around the island easily and see all of that and more. This island will not be for everyone. There’s no big box hotels, stores or chain restaurants. If you’re not adventurous and can’t handle bumps in the road, roaming horses and maybe some food you’ve never heard of, the occasional cold water shower only situation, this island is not for you. If you’d like to go to beaches where there are no people taking up your space and you can respect and hang with the locals, you just might have found paradise. Thank goodness for what it is, the most beautiful unspoiled island. We’ve already booked a second trip and may end up being locals some day! Remember, don’t tell anyone!

Never in my life did I think I can find paradise. This is a hidden gem in the Caribbean. If you can make it here. (Which can be very difficult getting from the main island to Vieques) It is absolutely a place that is absolutely worth the trouble to get too. Pictures are from black sand beach. (Notjer hidden spot on this island) FYI need a 4x4 or like us be really skilled with the golf cart to get here. The road leading in has ditches running down the center. It was so sketchy but so much fun and an experience to always be remembered.

Took the 10 a.m. & came back on the 6 p.m. ferry. Strolled around town & Munoz Rivera Plaza. Saw the beautiful wild horses! Took a taxi to Sun Bay Beach. Nice clear crescent shaped beach, clean & uncrowded. Collected some shells, saw some horses, roosters & hens on the beach. On the way back to the ferry we went to Sea Glass Beach. No sea glass on the beach...could be due to the strong waves. We had fun chasing the waves! Walked back to the ferry terminal which allowed us to see more of the neighborhood. It was overcast & rained hard a few times when we were on the island. We booked the ferry tickets online so make sure to check the weather forecasts around the day you want & don’t book too far ahead. Get the earliest ferry if you can (5 a.m. for passengers). May be a good idea to rent a vehicle if you want to see more of the island. It was our first time in Vieques island & hopefully not the last. We’ll stay longer than just a day trip next time. Seeing the Paso Fino horses roam & graze freely was a truly wonderful experience.

Such a beautiful place, please make time to go see as much as you can and enjoy. For most of the day on our golf cart we were the only people! Get you an air bnb, a golf cart, a cooler and put Vieques on your list to visit.
