Exploring Underwater Life
Scuba Diving in Vieques
LIfe is simple and tranquil on the island of Vieques, and even more so under the sea. Packed with breathtaking beaches but few people, the best part about diving in Vieques is that the island isn't dove much and there are a myriad of diving sites to choose from. Vieques offers excellent diving conditions for beginners as well as advanced divers. With maritime temperatures varying between 74 to 80 degrees, visibility upwards of 100 feet, bountiful diving locations including Angel Reef with healthy hard and soft corals, sponges and sea fans and Patti's Reef, which features swim-throughs, you might be surprised with all you will discover. For marine life, you may run into turtles, spotted eagle rays, large slipper lobsters or the occasional manatee or bottle nose dolphin. Also with a small island like Vieques, if the conditions aren't ideal in one location, it isn't hard to find a cove or different area to dive.
