Culebra – The Ultimate Weekend Getaway
San Juan, Puerto Rico and its surrounding environs are very cosmopolitan. The city certainly rivals any mainland US hub for commerce, amenities, and bustling urban life. In fact, it still amazes me that over four million people live in Puerto Rico. Of course, with such a large population comes the stress associated with having a lot of people such as crime, pollution, and worst of all horrendous traffic. That is why Culebra is such a great weekend escape for the residents of San Juan. Similar to the northeast destination, Nantucket, for a $2.25 ferry ride or a $50.00 plane ticket you can reach a place with no traffic, little crime, uncluttered beaches (like Playa Flamenco), and a very relaxing environment.
So the next time you have had a long work week in Puerto Rico, or would like to escape the traffic, come on over to Culebra for the weekend!
