Playa Brava beach

Playa Brava is a wild beach in the north of Culebra island, Puerto Rico. The spot is beautiful, but not very comfortable for swimming, since there are almost always strong waves. In addition, west end of the beach often suffers from algae. Probably, this is a perfect place for secluded seaside walks. There are just a rare visitors, because it is possible to get here only by walk along the coastline. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]
