is surrounded by exquisitely beautiful green
and turquoise beaches. Blue Beach, Red Beach, Orchid Beach,
Navio, Media Luna, Sun Bay, Green Beach, the endless little
beaches in between and the worlds most brilliant* bioluminescent
bay. Vieques is also covered with wild jasmine, growing wherever
it has not been cut away.

Reserve (with land on the eastern half and western half of
the island). The Mosquito Bay Reserve and Bioluminescent Bay

after all these years, the Sun never says to the Earth, "You
owe me." Look what happens-with a love like that, it
lights the whole sky." - Hafiz, Sufi Perfect Master of
the 1600's
