Sun Bay Beach

Beach stop at Sun Bay Beach or Esperanza Beach.Relax and enjoy crystal clear waters. We will visit one or the other depending on itinerary timing and sea weather conditions. 1-hourSunbay Beach, and Esperanza Beach in Vieques are one of the most amazing places to relax and enjoy beautiful crystal-clear waters in a peaceful paradise! We will visit one or the other depending on itinerary timing and sea weather conditions. 1-hour​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.

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Vieques Bio Bay Tour and Beach Day Trip from San Juan by Ferry?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
