Re: Culebra trip report (kind of long)
Culebra, Puerto Rico

While conserving water on Culebra (and everywhere in my opinion) is always a good thing to do, the houses on the east end of the island are served only by cistern water. Cisterns are filled naturally by rain water. I believe one can also pay to have their cistern filled by truck now. In the town, there is city water and most houses in and around town and out until around the area called Las Delicias are on city water. However, the water comes to Culebra via pipe from Vieques via pipe from the big island. Water pressure in town is often reduced and/or shut off completely, which means even people in town have to rely on cistern water sometimes.

Happy Diving!
