What To Expect

Experience a true tropical paradise on this high-speed catamaran adventure to one of the most secluded and unspoiled spots in the Caribbean. This Culebra tour is the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation, good food and drinks, and a laid-back afternoon sunbathing and swimming on some of the world’s most pristine beaches.

Start your day trip with optional pickup from select hotels in San Juan, and head for your catamaran cruise leaving from Puerto del Rey ferry terminal in Fajardo. Soak up the sun on the short ride on your speedy vessel, refreshments already in hand, and take in the amazing views of the nearby Cordillera Islands Nature Reserve along the way.

The first stop of the day takes you to the pristine Carlos Rosario or Luis Peña underwater nature reserve, just off the western shore of Culebra, for fantastic snorkeling among the area’s beautiful aquatic environment.

Once you’ve worked up an appetite, enjoy a delicious buffet spread including tropical cocktails, soda, juice, iced tea, fresh fruit, gourmet pasta salad, coleslaw or bean salad, freshly baked bread, sliced meats (turkey, ham, pastrami or salami), seafood or chicken salad, sliced cheese, chips, and cookies.

From there, take a short sail to one of Culebra’s unspoiled beaches for an afternoon of sunbathing, swimming, and beach combing. Depending on weather conditions, your captain will take you to one of two choices: the stunning Flamenco Beach, situated on Culebra’s main island, or the half-mile-long beach at Culebrita, a small islet that offers beautiful views of nearby Saint Thomas.

Finish your day with a return cruise to Fajardo, arriving back at the marina to make your own way home or via optional hotel transport.

Great experience from start to finish. Very well run operation! the staff was amazing and super attentive. Best of all, Culebra beach is probably the most beautiful beach I’ve ever been to!! Recommend 100%, you won’t be disappointed! The only negative was the boat ride was a little bumpy on the way there

East island Excursions Culebra

Michael_A, Apr 2024

Amazing excursion! The crew was great and the beaches were gorgeous! Even went above and beyond by calling me the day prior letting us know the weather might be rough so there was a possibility of a location change but it all worked out and got to snorkel and see Flemenco beach! Worth every penny! Definitely will be doing it again when I come back!

Fun Crew

Katie_M, Apr 2024

The team on board was so attentive to our needs. They were constantly making sure we had what we needed and that we were having fun. The boat was safe and thr crew made sure it was safety first. The beaches were absolutely breathtaking! Do this for sure the next time you are in PR!

Best excursion with East Wind never disappoints

mposse93, Apr 2024

Our excursion was very well organized. The check in area has a little cafe spot if you don’t have time for breakfast. The beaches were beautiful. The crew were very attentive and made the experience amazing. Would definitely book again.

Don't miss this experience!

Alicia_S, Apr 2024

We had an excellent experience with this tour!! The captain and staff on the boat were all fantastic, so helpful and really went the extra mile to make sure everyone had a great time! Culebra is stunning and should not be missed on any trip to PR! The snorkeling was so fun and time on the beach was relaxing.

Must Do

Jasmin_B, Apr 2024

Staff was friendly and informative. They made sure that we had a great time. Lots of time for snorkeling and swimming.

Would do it again

Patti_W, Apr 2024

Party in PR

Robert_D, Apr 2024

The weather was spotty but the crew came through! Had a blast snorkeling! The lunch and refreshments were awesome too!

Great time!

Ashley_F, Apr 2024

Great experience! The staff hands down made the trip! They were quick to take care of everyone’s needs and were always there to see if you needed a drink or accommodate you. The ocean was very choppy and the waves were huge so sadly we went to Vieques rather than Culebra as originally planned.

Beautiful beach and fun boat ride.

Usha_M, Apr 2024

The crew is amazing and the captain will do anything in his power to keep you safe and make the best of the trip under not ideal weather conditions.

Amazing crew 10/10

Erin_R, Apr 2024

The crew was AMAZING. Service was 10/10 could not have been a better experience. Loved this trip so much!!! But the crew!!!!!

Fun day trip to PR island

Eric_K, Apr 2024

Well organized trip. They sent us to Vieques instead of Culebras due to weather conditions yet didn’t miss a beat. Check in was easy (assuming you filled out the necessary vouchers ahead of time). Staff was pleasant and accommodating. Food was better than I expected. Alcohol was plentiful and no one got loud and sloppy. Tour consisted of mostly 20-30 year olds and families with older kids and some seniors. Plenty of time was given to snorkel and hang out on the beach. Would recommend.

We had a blast!

Karisha_C, Apr 2024

We had a blast! The crew was great and very attentive, I do not have 1 complaint at all! Will definitely book again 10/10

Awesome

Andreas_P, Apr 2024

Excellent experience and worth every penny. Highly recommended tour! Staff is very friendly and it was all well organized

It’s was ok.

Rashid_R, Apr 2024

This was an ok trip not too much of what was advertised. We got food and transportation, and the snorkeling portion was cool. Otherwise we spent more time traveling on the boat and not really on the beach, on top of that you don’t even get dropped off on the beach , you have to try to swim to shore with all of your stuff to spend like 45 mins there. Really not worth it at all. Worst part of the trip was trying to swim to shore.

Perfect day!

hrynberg, Apr 2024

This was a very well organized tour. They called me the day before to follow up and make sure we knew how to get to the marina. They sent the coordinates, which is very helpful in PR! The tour guides were amazing. Food was great! It’s was a perfect day!! We will definitely book another tour!

Amazing time!

Marcela_P, Apr 2024

My friends and I had an amazing time! The crew was kind and attentive and went above and beyond to make sure we had a good time! Would definitely recommend.

Fun and professional staff

Ruth_P, Apr 2024

We had a lot of fun with the staff and crew but at the same time they were very professional and made us feel safe. Flamingo beach was absolutely gorgeous

Great experience, loved it

Alyssa_R, Apr 2024

Our trip with Amanda, Dorian, Alex and crew was noting short of amazing. The snorkeling was awesome the vibe was amazing and we had such a great time! Definitely a memorable experience for my daughters and I on our mother/daughter trip! My daughter said she wants to do this trip every time we come to Puerto Rico!

Amazing beauty. Excellent value.

Nicole_R, Apr 2024

Captain and crew couldn’t have been nicer. Our added on transport was kind of a speed demon but overall an excellent experience. The beaches of Culebra must be seen to be experienced. Don’t fall for the pre buy lunch. It isn’t great and the crew provides all the food and beverage you need.
