Getting to Culebra from SJU and Camping questions
Culebra, Puerto Rico

I've been coming to these boards on and off the last couple of years. Each time hoping to make it to Culebra. This time, I think we will finally be able to do it possibly the end of May / beginning of June. Would this be a good / bad time to camp out at Playa Flamenco? I just want to be sure there isn't any kind of holiday or celebration going on that might keep us from a good night's rest! :)

More Playa Flamenco questions:
*How far is the campsite to the water?
* Are the no-see-ums and mosquitos vicious? Is deet required or will natural repellants be sufficient?
* Are there pay phones in Playa Flamenco??
* How far is the nearest store that sells coolers / ice / charcoal / fluid, etc.

Would like any feedback on taking Island Hi-Speed Ferry from SJU to Culebra. Would this be the easiest and most economical way to get to Culebra?

Transportation around the island. Is it possible to call a publico to pick you up? If so, how reliable is it? I'm trying to figure out if it's really necessary for us to rent a jeep or a scooter throughout the whole time we're there. Would like to try to keep our budget as minimal as possible.

I've also read somewhere that there is a rental place that rents out The Thing - would anyone know which rental company this is and their contact information? How much does it cost?

Thanks everyone!
