Need Help - Melones VS. Flamenco VS. Carlos
Culebra, Puerto Rico

Hello! Hope everyone is doing well!

I am going to be traveling to Culebra with my girlfriend for the first time in March (went to Vieques last year) and wanted to find out more about the best snorkeling spots in Culebra. Many people have said to go to Melones and Carlos Rosario and that you can hike to either one from Flamenco. The thing is I can't physically hike 20 minutes due to a medical condition. I need to be able to get as close as possible to the snorkeling area by vehicle (and without paying water taxi prices). Don't get me wrong I'm healthy and can walk, but just not too far; less than a quarter mile lets say.

What would be the best option for my situation in terms of getting as close to the best places to snorkel by vehicle/taxi service/public transportation? I am a good swimmer but somewhat of a novice snorkeler so I guess the calmest water is what I'm looking for (I know it would depend on the weather too). Also around these beaches how far out and deep should i expect to go to be able to see some cool marine life. My goal is to see some colorful coral and fish, and hopefully some sea turtles and other creatures.

How much do taxi's generally charge, or can you take public transportation to these area's? Any help on this matter would be most appreciated. Thanks a bunch for reading my post! Looking forward to seeing the island!!
