Culebra Puerto Rico Travel Vlog- The Best Food on the Island + Best Beach in PR!?

Описание: Welcome to another vlog- this time I am taking you along with me to the beautiful island of Culebra, a smaller island off the eastern coast of Puerto Rico. In this video you’ll see what many claim is Puerto Rico’s most beautiful beach, ranked among the best beaches in the world! Plus, our tips and tricks to make the most of your time and our favorite restaurants because what’s a great trip without equally amazing food!

First, make sure to reserve your ferry ticket early here on this website- it’s only about $2 one way per person but sells out fast. Plus make sure you have a way to get there, especially if you’re coming from San Juan as it’s about an hour and 15 minutes away (without tolls) or a few minutes faster with tolls.

I would recommend renting a golf cart- they’re super fun and easy to use and make going where you want super easy. Lots of people rent Jeeps but the island is very small so you can save some money and get a UTV- we had a great experience with Carlos Jeep Rental and it was super close to our Airbnb.

There are lots of airbnbs on the island and little boutique villas. I really loved the location of our Airbnb and it had everything we needed plus a cute rooftop and a walk to one of the only breakfast spots on the island (which turned out delicious)

Now on to the fun stuff- you definitely need to check out Flamenco beach if you’re visiting! The water is so clear and turquoise (nothing is edited in this video!) and the sand is soooo soft and white. However, since it’s very famous, it is very crowded. If you want another beautiful beach with very few people, check out Zoni beach on the other side of the island. You have to ride through some hills to arrive and when you are going down the hill to get to the beach overlooking the water, it is truly breathtaking. There is coral in the water here so be careful and respect the natural beauty of this island.

For food, if you get hungry or thirsty while at Flamenco beach there are some little kiosks which were super refreshing since it was very hot when we went. The empanadas were great! If you love dinner on the water, you have to check out Dinghy Dock or La Cocina del Navigante. We went to Dinghy Dock first but weren’t impressed with the menu- but it is right on the water and I would recommend stopping for a drink. Then we walked over to Cocina del Navigante and ate there- this also overlooks the water but is on a raised patio instead of being level with the water like Dinghy Dock. The fish was incredible here! Now on to breakfast, there are a few options, however a few aren’t open on weekends so that didn’t help us. Blac Flamingo Coffee is one of the very popular options and we enjoyed our food, although there weren’t too many options, but would definitely recommend and has a cute set up.

Overall, I have a similar conclusion about Culebra as I did about Vieques. They are both beautiful beautiful islands, but I also think the same about all of Puerto Rico. There are very limited options of restaurants and I think a lot of beaches on the mainland are equally stunning. If you have a long time in PR or love here, definitely make the trip out. Plus if you have a larger budget there are lots of fun water sports, boat excursions to do!
I hope some of this can help you if you ever get the chance to visit Culebra or Puerto Rico in general. Have a great time, and let me know where you think I should go next!
