Anyone planning on visiting Culebra I would suggest taking a charter plane....sad to say but it's just not worth the aggravation of trying to take the ferry. There is no sense of organization! ... it's really ashame that they don't improve the system. I recently visited Culebra on 7/9/11 and don't plan on doing it again till another ten years or so. Flamenco Beach is BEAUTIFUL but honestly not worth the trouble! we got to the ferry dock to purchase tickets @ 7am and they didn't actually start selling them until an hour prior to the ferry departing. Needless to say we didn't make it on the 9am ferry we had to wait till the 3pm ferry. There were people waiting on line from 5 am and didn't make it on the 9am ferry either. Once we finally purchased the tickets they didn't allow us to purchase round trip tickets! so that meant that we had to do the same process all over again coming back from Culebra. Once we got to Culebra @ 4:30pm we waited about another 20-30 minutes for the hotel to pick us up from the dock. Next morning we got up checked out and went to the ferry dock again to try and purchase tickets for the ferry on Sunday heading back to Fajardo @ 5pm and again we were unable to purchase those tickets because they wouldn't sell us the tickets to the 5pm ferry until an hour before departure. We then decided to go to Flamenco Beach, we got there about 12:00 and left @ 2:30pm thinking we would start making the line at least 2 hours before departure. Of course the line was OUT OF CONTROL!, there were people who didn't fit on the 1pm ferry and were waiting for the 5 pm ferry....Make a long story short, we didn't board a ferry until 10:30 pm and got back to Fajardo about 12:45am! And not only that but we had to board the Cargo Ferry which was roach infested .... roaches coming out of everywhere....WHAT A NIGHTMARE!
