All-Day Culebra Snorkel and Town Tour
The Island Flyer is a unique twin-hulled, wave piercing, motorized vessel that makes the run to Culebra at high speed, covering the distance in about an hour. Culebra is known as one of the �Spanish Virgin Islands�, and it lays half way between Puerto Rico and The U.S. Virgin Islands.
Depart your chosen resort at a time appropriate to provide for a 9:15 AM arrival at the Marina. Upon departing Marina Puerto Del Rey around 9:30 am, you will enjoy stunning views of the �El Yunque� mountains and the Fajardo coastline. After a comfortable passage of less than an hour, (depending on sea conditions!), we anchor off Culebra beach for about 1 1/2 hours for snorkeling. (Usually at the Luis Pe�a Nature Preserve).
Later, the Captain will take your party to the sleepy town of Dewey, where they�ll board a Taxi-van to one of the most spectacular beaches in the Caribbean, Flamenco Beach. (a five minute ride) Beach combing along this spectacular beach makes this a very relaxing and enjoyable afternoon. Here you�ll enjoy a sumptuous �build your own sandwich buffet� for lunch. Refreshments include beer, soft drinks, piňa colada and rum punch.
The white sands of world famous Flamenco Beach are great for beach combing, and the waters are a beautiful turquoise blue. Guests will enjoy superb snorkeling (for Culebra has no fresh water runoff to spoil the reefs) in gin clear waters.
At 3:20 pm, you will depart Culebra, cruising along the Marine Cordillera (island chain) on the way back to Fa-jardo. Arrival time back at Marina Puerto Del Rey is 4:00 pm.
You may wish to bring some cash to sample crafts by local artisans, or for underwater cameras available for sale on board. There are two restrooms on board, (men�s and women�s), fresh water deck showers and plenty of cabin space for guests to sit in the shade or tuck away belongings.
