Re: walking the island of Culebra

Walking is a great idea and great goal..a few comments. It gets REALLY HOT, especially in the hours between 11 and 4, and there's not always shade. If you are walking from Flamenco into town, plan on maybe 45 minutes..it's perfectly safe, and if you decide the heat is too much, you can stick out your thumbs, or you can flag down one of the beach buses, they will charge $3 a person. From town you can easily walk to Melones, a sweet coral-lined beach that has nice snorkeling. You might want to try walking along the shore too, if you are fond of climbing up and down and over rocks, boulders, coral. It's an amazing way to get to new places to swim or just to oooh and ahh. There is a grocery store a block above the airport that would be maybe a 30 minute walk from the camp. You'll be able to figure it out when you arrive because culebra's size is pretty cozy. From Flamenco you can also walk over a hill (slightly arduous 20 minute hike each way) to Carlos Rosario which is a little peninsula with snorkling on either sides. You can do some amazing shoreline walks from any point on any beach, the further you walk the wilder and quieter and awesome it is! Always clear turquoise water on one side..enjoy!
