Camping on Flamenco in January and February
Culebra, Puerto Rico

Hello everyone,

I just got back from a ten day stay in Culebra and fell in love with it. I want to go back in January and February but camp out at Flamenco this time. I have experience camping in NY and New England Spring/Summer/Fall both backpacking and in campground. I have experienced temperature fluctuations from the 20's F to the 90's. I only have one sleeping bag rated to 20 or 25 F, sometimes it has been adecuate and sometimes it has been way too hot.

Can anybody recommend comfortable sleeping options for that time of the year in Flamenco Beach? How is the water temperature?

Also, I know there is potable water, but I keep hearing not to drink it. Gallons of water can range from $1.50 to $2.50 in Culebra. I drink about a gallon a day and I'm trying to save as much as possible on this trip. Has anyone had experience using Iodine pills or a water filter with the "potable" water available on the beach?

Any advice, input, recommendation, suggestion, etc... will be greatly appreciated.

Abel
