Diving Culebra

Explore diving Culebra

Culebra is an enchanting Spanish Virgin Island situated 17 miles east of mainland Puerto Rico, 9 miles north of Vieques, and 12 miles west of St. Thomas. The island is only 7 miles long and home to fewer than 2,000 local residents. Culebra boasts an intricate shoreline with cliffs, sandy coral shores and mangroves; with numerous surrounding cays, and the Luis Peña Channel Natural Reserve.

When to dive Culebra

The island of Culebra is semi-arid with no fresh water streams and therefore, no surface run off. Because of this, the ocean visibility is among the clearest in the world year round, making for some of the best snorkeling and SCUBA diving. Culebra has several beautiful beaches, many of which are protected and therefore nearly waveless. Flamenco Beach, the most popular, is also consistently rated one of the world’s best. Paradise is found!
