01

Arriving at the port

This is a tender port. Isla Culebrita, meaning little Culebra or little snake, is a small uninhabited island off Culebra's eastern coast in Puerto Rico.

Culebrita is a coral island about 1 mile long, with six beaches. Its principal beach is Playa Tortuga (Turtle Beach) on the north side, named for the sea turtles that breed on the shore and graze in the surrounding water.

Large tidal pools on the island's eastern side are used for lounging like large baths.

Beachside local trees offer some shade, but the island has neither toilets nor changing facilities. Please leave it unspoiled and free from litter.
