Camping/Fly fishing
Culebra, Puerto Rico

Hello,

I'm planning a trip to Culebra for mid Nov and had a few ?'s. I'm mainly interested in camping, fly fishing, and photography. I normally do more adventure oriented trips to remote locations but I will be traveling by myself and look forward to relaxing on the island. Is it true you can only camp at the campground at flamenco? Is it possible to hike into more remote beaches and set up a tent to camp for a night? Are there flats and mangrove off some of the beaches to fish for bonefish and tarpon?

Thanks so much for your help,
Ryan Bonneau

The campground is the only place camping is permitted. Mid November you shouldn't have much of a difficult time having a quiet place to camp there and you can't beat the surroundings. Especially if you aren't here on a weekend, it should be good. Later than that, things change (ok, you mid-november campers, back me up or shoot down that theory).

If you decide to go bush and set up a tent, don't tell us about it, please!

There are flats that are excellent for bone fishing, but they are far enough off the shore line (not beach areas) that you'd best be a good swimmer! Ask around when you get here, or give Chris Goldmark a ring, he'll be back from the states by then and is our fly fishing guide, par excellence. He has a website listed on this site that you can check out. He's a great guy and knows Culebra waters well...clients catch fish with him, which is the idea!
