Day 3/6 Culebra, Flamenco Beach Puerto Rico
Day3/6 (Sept 22,2109)
We started our trip to Cieba around 630am. Our map said that it will be a hour 4 trip along the coast and inland.
It started out as a bright and sunny day.
When we got to Ponce, which is a bigger town with tons of familiar stores, our map took us to the back road. We thought it was because of a marathon set for that day.
We saw couple of horses untied and just hanging out lol.
We saw abandoned spaces. We had to turn back around because the roads were getting too bumpy with alot of potholes and our Kia rental car(which I enjoyed) wouldn't be able to handle.
Before we headed up the mountains, we stopped over at a local Walgreen's to buy some snacks and lip balm lol
We then drove up the mountains and it was breathtaking! from the houses on the cliff, chickens on the road to super steep driveway that leads up to houses! We were blown away!
the trees looked lush and untouched. The breeze were cool!
The street was tight and I could only imagine living there! It was a amazing, memorable and a beautiful side of Puerto Rico!
After that, roads became flat again. And this time, rain decided to join the trip! it was raining hard. Something I was used to back in the Philippines.
It took us to a grand valley which I hoped we stopped at and took photos and videos then to small towns by the coast.
After 4 beautiful hours trecking, we finally made it to the Port of Cieba.
To park our car for 2 days, I believe we paid around 24$? I booked our ferry 2 days before.
You can only book 2 days in advance( porferry.com) I also bought luggage tickets for 1$ each. I think the ticket one way to Culebra was 4$.
A shuttle will take you from the parking lot which was .01mile from the waiting station.
From my research, I was skeptical and cautious about how they port operates but to our surprise, it went smooth and super organized. Employees were friendly and easy to talk to. They we so willing to assist!
We then went to the ferry and decided to sit on the deck under a shade. I have motion sickness and fresh air with dramamine are my BFFS.
After 45mins, we landed in Culebra!
There was alot of people offering taxi ride to Flamenco Beach for 3$ plus 2$ entrance fee t the beach and all of these are LEGIT! You can get your own taxi, just ask for taxis number or even rent a Jeep Wrangler for 90$/day or a golf cart for 50$/ day plus insurance(which we did)
My brother and I decided to walk around to a restaurant only to find out that most busines were already closed due to a storm alert for the next day.
Fortunately, a receptionist from a hotel told us that a food truck is open a block away.
I am so grateful for that food truck because that served our lunch and our dinner!
We also made it to Milka's grocery store and bought OJ, water and paper towels.
From there, I called a taxi service. The driver was awesome. He drove to his house first and pretty much gave us a private tour in his neighborhood.
From the grocery store to our villa, he charged us 15$.
I booked our villa on Airbnb. It was literally by the beach. It was secluded from the public side which made it feel more exclusive.
We then went to see Flamenco Beach and it did not disappoint. sand was so soft that it felt like soft foam that shapes to your foot as you walk on it. Water was clear. I am colorblind so I couldnt remember the shade of it.
I was told by the people and owners of the other villas that Sept is low season. So most owners are fixing and upgrading their villas.
late June to Nov is low season due to hurricane and Sept it peak of it.
They also said the Flamenco is like a pool with calm waters when its not hurricane season.
We rented a golf cart hoping to drive to the lighthouse but it was raining hard that night and there wasn't alot of streets lights there.
We got a call from AirBnB in Puerto Rico asking us to have a plan to leave the island due to wether alert.
after couple of hours of discussions and refund confirmation, I book a hotel and ferry back to Cieba for the next day.
That night, we just watched tv(there were 4-6 channels in our tv), checked our photos and videos and called it a night!

Mini Adventure: Exploring San Juan, Puerto Rico!
Tyler and I spent a few days in San Juan, Puerto Rico and honestly we spent most of the time eating, hanging out at the beach, and drinking tons of Piña Coladas (okay fine, that last one was just on me.)
We never wanted to forget our short adventure to PR, so we made this video to always be able to look back.
