We were there during Holy Week in 2010, leaving on Good Friday on the first ferry out of Culebra. It was busier and more crowded on the island than the previous year, but nothing like many Carribean

Carlos took over Culebra Scooters, however I'm not sure he's renting them at the moment.

Just wondering how safe it would be to leave a rental car at the ferry parking area (I assume they have a parking area) for a long weekend. I want to take the ferry to culebra on friday and come back

If you plan to bring a rental on the ferry, I believe you'll be in violation of your rental contract for every rental company I've heard of in PR. Better bet is to get a publico or van taxi from SJU

It will be a miracle if you get in touch with anyone at the ferry dock by phone. As far as I know the 6:30 a.m. ferry from Culebra runs every day. There are more options as far as places to stay in
