island taxis / publicos
Culebra, Puerto Rico

During an upcoming December visit, I will need Friday mid-day transportation from the ferry dock to Playa Flamenco, and later in the afternoon, back to the dock (these times are not co-ordinated with the ferry arrival). My question: are taxis or publicos available for walk-up service at either of these locations?

Yes. There will be no problem with this. Think it's 2-3 bucks each way.

Thanks for the info. I won't have a cell phone with me, and my real concern is: will there always be taxis or publicos waiting at the dock and at Playa Flemenco throughout the day? Or should I plan on finding a telephone to request a pick-up? Thanks again for any help.

The publicops are pretty much available all day long. The publicos or taxis as you know them are always stationed by the ferry dock. When you leave Flamenco Beach, the cabs are usually stationed by the drop off area ready to take passengers back to town.

In December I'll be flying between Culebra and Isla Grande airport in San Juan.
I'm wondering how early the Culebra publicos start running from Playa Flamenco back to Dewey? I'd like to reserve a morning flight out, but want to make sure I can get from my camping spot back to the airport in time!

If anyone knows... Thanks for the info!
