question-Fajardo to Culebra ferry
Culebra, Puerto Rico

I have heard that the passenger ferry from Fajardo to Culebra often fills up completely. Might I be safe trying to buy an advance ticket at noon for that night's (Thursday) 7:00 pm outbound ferry? Or do the tickets usually sell-out by that time of day? Thanks for any help.

The Thursday 700pm ferry will not sell out ... although on a big holiday weekend it MIGHT. But 98% of the time you should be able to walk up and get a ticket for that specific ferry.

Thanks for the great information. If I might ask a follow-up question: is there staff at the dock who can sell me a passenger ferry ticket at any time of day? Or do they only sell tickets at certain times of day, possibly a set time before each departure? Thanks again for any help.

Lamont, the ticket office usually opens about 20 minutes before the ferry leaves...At this time of year..don't sweat it....

Hi!
Our family of 5 will be in Puerto Rico from November 17-24. Would you expect any problems getting tickets to Culebra or Vieques during that time? Also, is there any transportation between Culebra and Vieques? It would be nice if we could spend the day on Culebra, and leave in the afternoon for Vieques so we could see the bio-bay that night (we realize we would need to stay over in Vieques). Do you expect any of the scheduled ferry times might be different or not occur at all around Thanksgiving? Thanks for any information!

Remember to take the moon into account when planning your bio-bay adventure. A full moon kind of ruins things.

Hi!

I have a question regarding a cargo ferry.
We're renting a car in Puerto Rico and we'd like to bring to to Culebra for a couple of days (beginning November).
I've read that a cargo ferry fills up very quickly, and you have to reserver a space for your car weeks in advance. Does it still hold true for a month of November?

Thanks!

although no one will stop you from taking a rental on the ferry please note that the car rental companies DO NOT allow their cars to leave the island.
should you choose not to follow this rule know that you car, should you do damage or get in an accident, will not be insured ! plus you could be fined ! just so you know.

good luck,
