Half-moon-shaped Sun Bay Beach has it all: palm-lined sand, clear turquoise waters, sparse crowds, and pretty much all the facilities a beach-goer could want. As one of the most accessible beaches on Vieques — as well as the only beach offering public facilities — it’s a popular option for day-trippers to the island. The water is calm, with only a few gentle waves, so it’s an ideal beach for swimming, particularly at the far eastern end.

El Malecon is a favorite hangout for both visitors and residents on the charming coast of Barrio Esperanza on the south side of Vieques.  Visitors can choose from a variety of restaurants ranging from casual to finer cuisine with the bonus of a gorgeous sunset every afternoon of the year.
