Thanks to everyone for their input.
Mort: For day long snorkeling, the vest and other similar products on that site are a great idea.
Richard: To get the publicos that go to Fajardo in San Juan you have to go to Rio Piedras. You can take a $20 cab ride there or take San Juan's public buses, commonly known as "el AMA." The B-40 picks you up at the airport and takes you directly to the Rio Piedras station for $1.50. I think the publicos to Fajardo are going for about $6.00/person. The only thing is that you might have to wait up to 40 minutes for the B-40 to show up. You should get to Rio Piedras before noon. Some publicos tend to leave after this time. If that's the case, ask around and you should be directed to a plaza a couple of blocks away where you can find more publicos to Fajardo but are not generally going to the airport or ferry terminals. Nonetheless, if you ask them to take you to the ferry or airport, they will.
I'm still confused about the water. Everyone in Culebra tells be to drink bottled water, while people that have experience drinking the water say it's fine. I think I'll bring water purification pills and my filter that I take when I backpack with me just in case.
Is there anything else I should know about camping, environment, annoyances, etc...?
Oh, I also like to surf fish and it seems that no one in Culebra does it. Locals don't even use fishing rods!! Does anyone have any input on this?
Thanks
