SPECIAL MESSAGE:
Vieques is a beautiful island, but their residents have struggled for decades. They have faced problems caused by hurricanes and unreliable transportation.
In fact the ferry is the only means of travel for Viequenses to get to the main island
for their work or even to visit a hospital. Other problems like lack of gasoline and
not having a hospital have been some of the challenges that they endure on a daily basis leading to protests demanding fair treatment.
There are several charity organizations working to bring medicines and help the people of Vieques, but there is much more to be done.

Thank you very much for this video. Home sweet home!
Thank you so much for watching. Vieques is truly a paradise!
Thank you for this experience. During the early 1960's I was there several times with the U.S. Navy Assault Craft Unit 2 and beached in Puerto Ferro Cove at Camp Garcia Marine Base. The island was much less developed than now. Our boat would sail around the south side of the island, past black sand beach, on past green beach to Roosevelt Roads Naval Base. The snorkeling was fabulous and the bioluminescence was amazing. At times we would walk into Esperanza in bathing suits for recreation. Vieques is still on my bucket list to revisit.
Thank you for sharing that beautiful memory!! I can only imagine how gorgeous Vieques was back then and how fun it must have been to snorkel in those pristine waters
This is a great video. I live here an I always take pictures of my baby dog Wilbur lol…
For my first experience with Vieques, my son was young, and we were looking for a calm beach. My wife is intimidated by waves so she wanted something calm, too. The parador where we were staying recommended Media Luna. Not only is it calm, but it stays shallow for a long ways out. Luckily next door I found Playa Navio which I got to enjoy some waves and a cool cave. I'm a sucker for a beach with a cave, and Navio delivered. And to the other side of Media Luna was Sun Bay, which was big and beautiful and totally worth checking out, too. The variety of beaches that Vieques offers is pretty impressive. I'm more of a river/waterfall kinda guy, but Vieques has something for everybody as far as beaches, and is worth checking out ... ESPECIALLY if you are a beach person.
Vieques is a beach paradise!! Now, we have a new place to explore for our next visit!! Thank you so much!!
I’ve lived in vieques off an on since 2013 an it’s definitely beautiful an yet hard living at times.
This is a terrific video! Thank you. We will be there this summer, and your video has been very helpful.

Thank you! I would say Vieques, and bio bay tour! We also have some ideas of what to do while in Puerto Rico on this video! ua-cam.com/video/oGP6KwqptHA/v-deo.html Also, if you want to experience good snorkeling without leaving Mainland PR, take a look a Peña Blanca in Aguadilla, it's an amazing place (This video) ua-cam.com/video/iefF9FuIv54/v-deo.html

Spectacular video 💯👍
Thank you so much!! We really appreciate your comments! Have a great weekend! 👍

Pro tip for Playa Negra. Bring a magnet or collect a little bit of the black sand to bring back with you. The black sand is magnetic and fun for the kids (and adults) to play and/or craft with. We Brought some back and made a little tabletop Zen garden with the black sand and included a couple magnets in there along with seashells we collected and the normal little rakes and tools. Really cool
Nice!! That's a great tip and a fun way to explore and enjoy such a beautiful place!! Thank you so much

Ah lucky you, you are living THE LIFE! 💗 You were beach hopping at different beaches with different terrain. Hope you stayed in one beach one day at a time ;-)
Thank you so much! We are lucky! We love it here !!
Thanks!!! Yes, we could totally stay all day at each place snorkeling!! We were a bit on a time crunch so we were at each beach about 2 hours. Every time we go back to Vieques we go to Punta Arenas to search for turtles 😀😀
Que mucho extraño a mi Islita. 🌺🇵🇷🌺
Puerto Rico ciertamente es la Isla del Encanto!
@@natalieandgabriel 🌴🇵🇷🌴
I want to see you in pata prieta beach. Is hidden also has a dessert like Forrest with saguaro 🌵. I loved that one too. I enjoyed your video. Ven otra vez!
Thank you for your kind words and the suggestion!! We will definitely try to check out Pata Prieta asap!! Sounds very interesting!!
@@natalieandgabriel and wait til you see the size of the hermit crabs. Huge! Snorkeling there was cool too
Brain coral with Christmas tree worm. 😮😮😮😮
Snorkeling in Vieques is awesome, full of beautiful marine life!
It always makes me pause in amazement when I hear that there are only 5 biobays in the whole world, and 3 of them are in Puerto Rico ... including the brightest of all. What the heck!? I've experienced Mosquito Bay several ways, and my favorite was the one that we did in kayaks.
Mosquito bay is a wonderful experience. The day we went, it was super bright and breathtaking
That's a very nice video 😍😍. Loved the snorkeling part so much specially that star fish 😀😍😍😍. Keep going my friends 💪💪💪. Looking forward to the next adventure ❤️❤️
Thank you so much! We are really grateful for all your comments and advice! You are a very valuable part of our channel! Take care my friend!
@@natalieandgabriel ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I visit Puerto Rico frequently, but haven’t been to Vieques. I was looking for some information before visiting and this video was very informative. Thanks!
We are so happy to know that our video was useful! Thank you so much for watching and for your comment!
Robins has the best drinks an best prices. Tell them Debra an my pitbull wilbur told u. I just love them an good food as well. Great people.
Outstanding video. Great tips for snorkeling. Planning a trip there soon. Just subscribed.
Thank you so much. Hope you visit and enjoy it as much as we did!! Thank you for your support!!
Hi did you stay in vieques? And How did you go to different places did you rent a car? Or is everything included in a tour? Excellent video I can say is the best thanks
Nice video, Just subbed
Thank you so much for your support 🙏❤ we appreciate it so much !!
Excelente calidad de producción e información invaluable. Hace tiempo que no visito Vieques, me dieron muchas ganas
Saludos! Muchas gracias por tus palabras, son muy apreciadas y más por q le admiramos muchísimo! Creo q entre todas las playas hermosas en PR, Natalie y yo estamos de acuerdo q Punta Arenas en Vieques es una de nuestras favoritas si no, la favorita!
Te hospedaste en vianques ? Y en qué te transportas de un lugar a otro? O es un tour? Excelente video gracias
Saludos, nos hospedamos en vieques. Para poder hacer el tour de la bahia, hay q quedarse al menos una noche. Nosotros hicimos el tour de la bahia con Vieque eco trips. Para transporte. Teníamos transportación local por familiares, pero hay agencias de alquiler de vehículos y de carritos de golf q hacen más conveniente el moverse de punto a punto!
Muchísimas gracias!!
Great video We are going there in May please let me know what camera you are using to take clear underwater pics thank you
Hi! Thank you! We use a Gopro hero 9 black for underwater footage. Hope you have a great time while visiting PR!!!
Great video! We are planning our trip there so this was very helpful! I definitely want to see Punta Arenas, it was not even in my list of places to see there before watching this! Great snorkeling! Did you see any of the non-beach spots? I want to see the hacienda ruins and the huge ceiba tree and look for the hidden bunkers too. Hopefully I will be able to make a beautiful video like yours.
Hi, thank you so much for your nice comment and for watching. Sadly, We only did beach related activities on this trip but I'm sure that you will have a great time on any adventure you do. Punta Arenas for snorkeling is amazing! We are sure you will do an awesome video and we would love to watch it!! Once again thank you so much!!
Did you have the clear-bottom kayaks for the bio bay tour?
Hi! Yes, it's super cool, you can see the microorganisms. It's a unique experience and one of the most memorable tours we have done!
Terrific video! Your underwater footage was amazing! Please share what underwater camera was used in this video. Thank you!
Thank you! I used an Olympus Tough TG-4 for this video.
What kind of mic were you using?
Thank you for guiding us where to go too.
Thank you so much! We are using Movo wireless WMX-1 kit. It's been a pleasure. We are happy to help!!
I grew up in Vieques we are known as the comearepas
Hi! So Arepas are famous in Vieques? We love it so much. I would say that it has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world!
How did you travel there? I didn’t get a chance to book a vehicle. I’m visiting in 2 days. Any inputs from others are appreciated.
Hi, we used the ferry from Ceiba. We had someone in Vieques with a car. There's a few places that rent vehicles and club cars(golf cars) for Ferry tickets, you should go to their website for availability www.puertoricoferry.com/en/routes-schedules/ceiba-vieques/ or you can check in Ceiba ferry port for tickets. They usually sold out quite fast.
For cars or golf carts, you can check out viequescarrental.com/st_car/vieques-golf-cart-rental/
Hope you have a great time!
Great video! Why was the ferry ride so stressful?
Thank you so much! It was stressful because of how many ppl trying to get into the ferry at the same time disregarding social distancing. Apart from that, it was smooth sailing ⛵. Hope you enjoy the beautiful island of Vieques and have a great time! Enjoy your vacation!
Roaming in our trash cans 😝
How far from the beach and kiosks?
How did you travel to the different beaches? Did you rent a car?
Hi, we had someone that took us around the island, but the most common and easy way to move in Culebra is renting Golf Carts. They are everywhere!! Thank you for watching!
But this isn't of culebra? And the only way to get to the remote beaches which are the best if you ask me is a jeep. Hope that helped.
Why is the ferry ride stressful?
I guess it depends on your personality if you would find it stressful. The port is super dirty and muddy and disorganized, and the ferry is always super crowded and noisy. Plus if you get at all seasick it will not be fun. I think it was mostly stressful at the time because of covid
@laurieandTodd What was the best way to get from San Jaun to the ferry? Going in a weeks. TIA
Hi, You can use a transportation service from San Juan To Ceiba, and tell them the date you are coming back from Vieques so they can pick you up. There's also the possibility of renting a car and leaving it on the Ceiba Port, but i believe it's not safe to leave a car there overnight. You can also use Taxi services to get to the port. From San Juan to Ceiba is about 1 hour and 20 minute drive. I've seen some companies that provide this service, so if you want, i can share them with you.
@@natalieandgabriel Thanks so much, renting a car is not an option, no cars availalbe, taxi maybe the way to go but open to car service if you have any to reccomend
Sure, I’ll give you some options, do you have Facebook? So I can send the info in a DM?
www.luquillotaxi.com try that one.. if you want some phone numbers of a private drivers that do that kind of service, let me know, visit our FB page and i can send the info via messenger! We hope you enjoy your trip!!
Video is not focused
Hi, May I share the most important news you will ever hear? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?
Why are u wearing 2 masks outside???
Hi! It's just 1 big mask, too big for Natalie's face. It looks like it's 2 masks but it's just one 😆. Thank you for watching!!
@@natalieandgabriel Awe :) But why wear one outside? Breathe Gods clean air :)
Hi, at the time of the filming, in Puerto Rico wearing a mask everywhere was mandatory due to Covid 19.
