Getting b/w Vieques and Culebra
Culebra, Puerto Rico

I made reservations to stay at least 3 days in Vieques, but....the allure of Culebra is pulling me. So, I'm trying to spend 2 days in Culebra. BUT, I'm not sure if it's even possible to move b/w the islands.

Does that high-speed ferry still operate? The phone number is disconnected -- which is a bad sign. If it's still operating, does it run on weekdays? (especially Monday, Jan. 7th)

Are there flights? If so, how much would it cost to fly 2 people from Vieques to Culebra? I'm a student, so I can't exactly charter a private jet.

Or, are there locals who regularly take their boats between the islands -- and with whom I might hitch a ride for some not-too-expensive contribution?

I could visit Culebra either before or after Vieques...so I guess that I'm looking for a way b/w Culebra and Vieques on Mon. Jan 7th or Wed., Jan. 9th.

Any thoughts?

P.S. Any thoughts on the advantages/disadvantages of the two islands are also appreciated.

You can call Air Flamenco and ask about a flight between Vieques and Culebra. We have one scheduled for 1/25. It cost $25 per person. I really don't think they have a regular schedule, but will make the trip if it fits in.

The high speed ferry does not run any longer.

The cheapest way to do it is to take the ferry from Vieques to Fajardo, and then from Fajardo to Culebra.

Happy Diving!
