Hi All,
I'm a total newbie to Culebra but I have been on many other islands in the Caribbean. I think I'd like to try Culebra next. For months I've read many of the TripAdvisor questions and I've also been reading in this forum.
I'm trying to get an overall feel for the island as far as where to stay. We will likely need at least two rooms (4 women who travel together) and we'd like to be near good snorkeling. We are not opposed to renting a jeep.
We have traveled for many years and many times to St John. I wonder how the island compares to that? I can tell it's not as mountainous and likely not as many places to go out and eat. How does snorkeling compare?
What are your favorite places to snorkel on the island? For us, it's really ALL about snorkeling and beaches for the day. We aren't looking for a night life. We just look for a quiet place to get together, snorkel, and swim.
So for now, my questions are:
1. Best beaches for snorkeling
2. Places to stay that you can recommend or rental companies that handle places? We have often rented from VRBO. We don't need anything too fancy... but we also don't want to stay in a hole.
3. Do we have to worry about security or our safety?
4. Is flying in really necessary or are you better off ferrying over?
I'm sure as I continue to plan, I will have many other questions.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Sincerely,
Lisa
