Honda in Culebra is a great anchorage, particularly up behind Cayo Pirata, where you are close enough to the Dinghy Dock Café to row over for morning coffee and breakfast. The town, Dewey, has an
internet café if you cannot pick up
WiFi on your
boat and all of the major
cell phone services
work just fine in PR. It is a short walk to the
ferry terminal in Dewey, where you can catch a $2.50
ferry ride to Fajardo on the mainland. I understand that there is a free shuttle from the Fajardo ferry terminal to the Super WalMart, which is just across the highway from a large West
Marine store. Many Puerto Rican towns have a privately owned public car
service (publicos) to other points on the island, certainly from Fajardo to the SJU
airport, and are much cheaper than a taxi. Fajardo is a very good sized town and the yachting center on the
east coast. You will be able to find anything that you need there and most necessary items will be available on Culebra. Enjoy!!

P.S. Be aware that most of the air
service between Culebra and
San Juan flies into the smaller Isla Grande
Airport, necessitating a not inexpensive cab ride to the international airport. Be aware!
