There is also a variety of snorkeling and kayaking companies that will allow you to travel to and observe the most beautiful beaches the island has to offer in the best way possible. The average daily hotel cost for a couple is $71 a night which is not too expensive if you ask me. There are multiple muesuems that detail the unique history of the island with the preserved Spanish fort museum known as “El Fortín De Conde Mirasol” being an absolute must visit for history nerds. Vieques has an extremely rich 4000 year old cultural history with the island having been inhabited by the French, Taino indians, English, Americans, and Spanish. Overall this island is absolutely gorgeous and definitely worth the trouble of visiting.
