Re: deserted beaches
Culebra, Puerto Rico

My family hiked to Brava Beach and it was the highlight of our trip. It was a moderate 20-minute hike from the road along a mostly shaded trail. Make sure you get hiking directions from Jerry or other knowledgeable local so you do not get lost. Its not easy to get lost but you have to know the turns.

We arrived at a glorious white sand beach that was completely deserted. We started by hiking the east end which consists of large black rocks and boulders being washed by the ocean. Very cool. We then settled in on the main beach. The sand was extremely soft and the water was crystal clear. There was a gentle slope into the water and we could walk out quite far.

The surf was fairly gentle close to shore but quite rough as we ventured out further. The waves seemed to be prefect the day we were there. I know Brava is known for its rough surf, so I am not sure what you may find other days.

The half day we were there, we did not see another soul.....not on the beach and not on the hike either way. We did not see any footprints on the beach. From your description, this may be the beach for you. Every other beach we visited, including Zoni, had other people on the beach. We did not visit Resaca.
