Beaches

The best beaches on Vieques are located on the southern Caribbean side, and are accessible by car. Pack a picnic and set out to explore the pristine white sand beaches. Navio is ideal for active beach goers who want to bodysurf, Green Beach is located on the Western tip of the island and offers views of Puerto Rico, while Blue Beach is famed for snorkeling. Sun Bay offers picnic facilities, and Playa Negrita is the island’s only black sand beach (though is it a bit of a hike to get to). Red Beach is one of the most popular and flanked by mountains and calm waters for swimmers.

Indagare Tours: Bioluminescent Bay

Filled with glowing plankton, Mosquito Bay is the brightest bioluminescent bay in the world, and a must-see attraction during a stay on Vieques. The best way to see them up close is to book a guided tour with one of the local touring companies that is licensed to access the bay. Options range from clear bottom kayaks to electrically powered boats that will take you straight through to this otherworldly site during a nighttime excursion.
