ABOUT VIEQUES…

A small island (10,000 pop,) off the eastern coast of Puerto Rico, Vieques is a place where wild horses still roam the streets and many of the almost 100 beaches are virtually deserted even in the height of the season.  In this laid back paradise, you will find a handful of ocean front restaurants serving simple dishes and perfect pina coladas.  There are open-air bars scattered throughout the island’s two villages.
