Getting Around

Rental cars, Jeeps, taxis, and local tips for exploring the island at your own pace

Although Culebra is a small island, having a transportation plan will help you make the most of your visit.

Downtown Culebra is walkable, but many of the island's most beautiful beaches, scenic overlooks, and attractions are located outside the town center.

Visitors can explore the island by rental vehicle, taxi, or on foot, depending on their interests and travel style.

Meet the People Who Make Culebra Special

One of the things that makes Culebra truly special isn't just its breathtaking beaches—it's the people. Many of the local businesses featured throughout this guide were built through years of hard work, sacrifice, and a genuine commitment to serving both residents and visitors. As someone who has lived in Culebra for many years, I'm honored to share a few of their stories with you.

Rental Vehicles

One of the best ways to experience Culebra is by exploring the island at your own pace. While downtown Culebra is walkable, many of the island's most popular beaches, scenic overlooks, and attractions are located outside the town center.
