Culebra Island

Ahhhh, Culebra island is off the east coast of Puerto Rico and one can get there for $4.50 round-trip on a ferry.  I recently went on a 4am ferry and was at the beach from 7:30 am to 3:30 pm. yup, a full work-day's worth of sun.  The water is crystal clear EVERYWHERE!  Flamenco Beach is ranked one of the most beautiful beaches in the world and I can understand why.  It is pristine...The sand is white and powdery.  There are no shells or rocks or anything floating in the water (except the occasional jellyfish).  I even got to dive off the pier into about 15-18 feet of water.  I COULD SEE ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM!  It was so inviting that I have jumped off the pier all three times I have been there.  The picture of that ladder is in the water I dove into.  Do you see how clearly you can see it even under water?!?  The place never ceases to amaze me.  I am glad that we (humans) have not messed it up!  The video is sideways...but you will get the idea!
