Re: Costa Bonita open yet?
Culebra, Puerto Rico

From what I have heard, one of the reasons that it has not made good progress is that the developers failed to do their homework, both in terms of planning for adequate sewers, water and other utilities, and in terms of impact on the environment. With Culebra's largest asset being its draw as an eco-tourism destination, developments like Costa Bonita pose the threat of causing Culebra to lose the charm and unique character that makes it so beloved.

Garry says that this is a huge step for Culebra. Paving every square inch of Culebra, and fostering high density development isn't considered 'progress' by everyone. There are plenty of places to recreate on jam-packed beaches, stay in high-rises and eat fast food, like Cancun. Culebrenses are very protective of their way of life and the unspoiled paradise that makes it possible.
