Puerto Rico - Area 2 Culebra Island
	Download this chapter

Culebra’s coastline provides a few of the island’s dive sites, especially along the west coast where Impact Reef is dived at several spots along its length. This sheltered coastline is easily reached from Ensenada Honda through the cut that divides Culebra.

More of Culebra’s dive sites are around the outlying islands and rocks that surround Culebra to the east and the west. Some of these islands are bird sanctuaries, and from the dive boat you will see nesting terns and boobies.

The range of Culebra’s diving impressed us. There are sites perfect for beginners or those who want to take it easy, as well as more challenging diving for experienced and adventurous divers. The challenge may take the form of difficult entry and exit in rough seas, the chance of strong currents, or underwater terrain requiring excellent buoyancy control. Equally, if your idea of heaven is a 60-minute dive in shallow water crowded with marine life, then Culebra has that to offer, too.

See the book for 18 pages describing this area’s 23 dive sites and 3 dive stores, plus lots of information about the island, après dive activities, diving rules and regulations and marine life.
