Re: Another batch of first-timer questions...
Culebra, Puerto Rico

Hi,

Luis Peña is totally kayakable and very much worth it. There are some trails there, but I didn't have time to check them out when I was there (like the other poster, I was spending my time snorkeling). Definitely check out the opposite side of Luis Peña, just around the southern tip -- there's a beautiful little beach. There were some choppy waters and a bit of a current getting back the day I went, but nothing too bad (and I'm not a very experienced kayaker). I was told it's generally not advisable to kayak to Culebrita; the water tends to be a lot rougher on Zoni and that side of the island (but maybe that's not really true -- I'd just ask whoever rents you the kayak). I've only ever seen the plastic "sit-on-tops" available.

Assuming you already know this, but careful if you decide to go exploring off the marked trails, as there are unexploded munitions around the island and quays.

Enjoy your trip -- you'll have a blast!

-- Carly
