The beaches on Vieques were absolutely phenomenal! They are plentiful and very uncrowded, even in “high season,” when we were there.

La Chiva, which is one and a half miles long, is known by the locals as “Blue Beach!”

The water seemed cold at first, but by the time we left, it felt like the temperature of warm bath water, VERY soothing…!

Relaxing in sand-made lounge chairs!

One day we took a picnic lunch and hammocks (hand-made by my eldest) to Playuela, aka “Red Beach.” It had shelters and trees to hang the hammocks, so we enjoyed the shade.

This is the view from the hammock I was lazing in ~ I had to pinch myself to believe it was real!

And, last but NOT least, our sand man we found on the beach! Coming up soon, my favorite beach…
