The path is well marked and curves frequently. The first section is downhill and over rocks that can be slippery. Hikers should be in decent shape and the hike down can be slightly precarious at points and the hike back is straight uphill. Upon exiting the canopy you emerge on to a truly perfect (and probably empty) beach. It is SO beautiful and un-touched. If you go to Culebra and are more into adventure then a hike to Resaca is totally worth it.

Another gorgeous beach in Culebra is Tamarindo Beach. Locals recommended it since it's on the other…read moreside of the island and doesn't have the seasonal algae that can show up at Flamenco Beach. It's not as family-friendly, though--there isn't much space to spread out, and it's better known as a snorkeling spot. The area is known for sea urchins and stingrays (though I didn't see any), and while the shoreline is a bit rocky, I still enjoyed swimming there. The scenery here is stunning--honestly even prettier than Flamenco, with mountains creating a beautiful backdrop. Just keep in mind it doesn't have the same amenities as Flamenco, so plan accordingly.

Brava Beach is on the northern part of Culebra. It's difficult to reach. Along with Resaca Beach,…read moreit is off the beaten path. You can't access it y car. You must walk. I guess maybe if you have a boat also. The hike is about 20-30min. However, it's worth the trek. Very beautiful and isolated. This beach is known for its surfing. So if you are a surfer, this is your beach. However, the undertow is strong so I suggest if you are not an experienced surfer then this may be too dangerous. Because of the current, it is not recommended for swimming. This beach is ideal for surfers, photographers, and those who want to chilax on the sand away from crowds. Also, this beach is a popular nesting ground for sea turtles, as such the area is closed to the public after sunset.

It's almost a certainty, but if you list the top 5 beaches in the world, one of them will always be…read moreCulebra's Flamenco Beach, BUT..... . . . I found a beach that's EVEN BETTER: Playa de CoreyG (I proclaimed it with this name since it appears to be a nameless beach) What do you think of when thinking of the lovely Flamenco Beach? o White soft sand o Crystal clear waters o Warm comforting water o Peace These are all great and good, BUT y'know what? Playa de CoreyG is even BETTER---because it has all of this x10! This beach is TOPS in my book because of its seclusion. The beach is just off the small island of Culebra on the even smaller island Cayo Luis Pena. The only way to get to this beach is by taking a boat (I kayaked) from Culebra, and going to the other side of the island (it's less than a mile away.) On the other side of Luis Pena, you will round the corner and find one small sandy nameless cove. Go past this one and go to the next cove. This beach is a bit bigger. Ride a few waves in and you will be at the world's BEST beach: Playa de CoreyG. The beach isn't very wide, but there's more than enough room to lay down your towel and soak some rays, read a book, or take a nap (don't forget sunscreen!). I spent a few hours here. While here, I was followed by another couple. They dropped off their kayak and did some snorkeling. The water is magnificent--super clear & the sand is nice and soft with very little rocks to worry about. There are views of even smaller islands off to the north/west. This is what I imagine Flamenco Beach was like before it became discovered, touted, & touristy. I should have stayed longer, but I wanted to circumnavigate around Luis Pena to get back (BIG MISTAKE). First off, paddling around the rest of the island is long! Secondly, when you get on the other side of the island you run into some rough seas (wind & waves will pound you.) Two & a half hours later and 10 blisters on my hand, I made it back to Culebra. In hindsight, I should have just stayed on my beach longer and went back the short route. It's OK. I will be back. My beach beckons.

But be careful! I'm not sure why we didn't see this at the other beaches we went to (Pata Prieta and La Chiva), but there were so many stingrays that came right up to this beach! Maybe it was just the time of the day (we were there around 5pm, when the tides were coming in), or we just didn't notice it at the other spots? I'm not sure, but we counted at least a half dozen coming in and swimming around in just fifteen minutes that we spent standing in the water. It put us off of wading in. A cool experience but a bit intimidating.

There is also a bathroom here. I heard this beach can get crowded but when we went here at 8:30 am on a weekday, there were only 3 people there.

We initially paid for two nights when we first checked in. After this, we decided to stay two more…read more We were told to pay on our way out. On the second day, we returned to our campsite from the beach to find it completely stripped. There were marks on the ground from our tent having been dragged a very long distance. We went to the office and no one was there. The doors were locked and our tent was visible through the glass. The office had all of our contact information. The woman who checked us in (and as we found out later, stripped our campsite) did not speak English. She had all of our contact information on the form (which was in Spanish), including our phone numbers and email addresses. Clearly she did not understand what was going on and instead of contacting us or even just approaching us at the campgrouns, she chose to wait until we were at the beach to take all of our belongings and leave for the day. We were left with no food, water, tent, clothes, medixation, etc. that we needed. We waited for hours for her to come back, but she never did. There is no contact information for their office listed on the signs. We had to pay for transportation back to the town and find a hotel late at night. The next day, another employee let us take our belongings back and apologied for the other staff's lack of understanding/communication. This is when we noticed they had completely destroyed our backpacking tent (entire inside ripped out and several supporting poles broken in half) and that we were missing clothes and had other items damaged beyond repair. All of this aside, there is no more drinkable water here. Only one shower nozzle works (always a VERY long line). And the main bathrooms were only open on two days for a couple hours. They really let this place go downhill which is very disappointing, as my family always enjoyed it in the past. We recommend the hostel, which is the same cost as camping $30 AND comes with showers, working restrooms, clean sleeping areas, and staff that wont harrass you and treat you like total dirt. Save yourself the stress and enjoy your vacation.

Also, the price was very reasonable for what you are getting. The room was comfortable and we loved that we had a kitchen to cook in. We went to the local grocery store to get food and prepared it in the kitchen. We also loved that there was no TV in our room because we never watch TV on vacation since it reminds us of being back home and it wastes the trip away. lol :) We loved that they also provide beach towels, aside from the bath towels. My daughters enjoyed swinging in the hammock in the front of the property. Juan greeted us personally and showed us around when we first arrived, and we felt very safe staying here. The property feels very private and quiet. It is away from the public beach entrance side of Flamenco Beach which is nice because the beach in front of this property doesn't get so crowded. While staying at Culebra we took a water taxi to Culebrita Island for a half-day trip, and that was breathtaking and a must-do. Staying at Villa Flamenco Beach was a wonderful peaceful retreat away from city-life and we loved every minute!! The location can't be beat! We HIGHLY recommend Villa Flamenco Beach to anyone. It is a gem!
