Notes about Vieques Beaches
Please Help Out!
When you hit the beach, please do your part to keep the beaches & island clean. The beaches don’t clean themselves, nor does the government clean them - real people like us clean them, sometimes in organized groups and sometimes we just do it when we visit the beach. If all you do is pick up your own trash we love it, but if you want to be a hero, pick up an extra bit as you leave, even if it is just a single plastic bag or a beer can. Thank you so much for your help! (PS. You can do this on any beach you visit, worldwide!)
Sea Turtles
If you need another reason to pick up trash, here's one: it harms our friendly & beautiful sea turtles! In Vieques, there are three major turtle species: Tinglar (Leatherback), Carey (Hawksbill), & Verde (Green), all wonderful in their own right. Nesting seasons run from March through September. So in addition to trash pickup, please stay clear of the nests, hatchlings, and nesting females, and fill in holes and sandcastles on the sand. The turtles thank you! For more information, you can visit one of our favorite groups in Vieques, Ticatove (say tee-kah-toe-vay).
Tides
Some of the northside beaches we have listed are "short". By that I mean there isn't a lot of sand between the water and the jungle. And that means that a high tide can cover much or all of the sandy part with water! So for those beaches, we use this tide-forecast site and if it's a high tide, or on its way to high tide, we simply choose another beach. A few examples of these "short" beaches are Starfish Beach, Airport Beach, Cemetery Beach, and Sea Glass Beach.
