Hike, bike and get healthy for the New Year when you plan your adventure now, in the Spanish Virgin Islands.
Join Beyond Boundaries Travel’s biking & sailing easy adventure in the Spanish Virgin Islands. With a sparse population, wild uncrowded beaches and crystal clear waters, the islands of Culebra and Vieques offer the perfect venue for this adventure.
The adventure begins January 1, 2011 in San Juan, Puerto Rico. With hundreds of direct, affordable flights from the USA, the Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport serves as a hub for many Caribbean destinations.
The first night of the New Year will be spent at the Hotel Milano, described as “a little jewel in the heart of Old San Juan”. After breakfast the next morning and a tour of Old San Juan, a private motor coach will transport the group to the Fajardo Ferry for the 19-mile boat ride to Isla de Culebra where you will be met by your hosts, Captains Rick and Karen Miles, who will welcome you aboard the Wanderbird yacht for the start of your sailing adventure.
The 90′ Wanderbird is a classic North Sea fishing trawler built to rigorous Dutch standards. Each of the six cabins has its own bathroom and accommodates two people. All meals are prepared with the freshest of natural ingredients with breads and pastries made from scratch daily.
Tentative plans are to spend two days biking on Culebra and three days on the larger island of Vieques. Each morning you’ll come ashore via a skiff where your French guide, Eric will greet you with your bike ready to ride. A support van will follow the group on each ride, which will be an average of 5 – 15 miles per day. The terrain varies from easy flats along the electric blue waters of the Caribbean to rather challenging as the road takes us up and over the spine of the islands. After biking each day, there will be plenty of time to explore the flora and fauna of these magical islands.
