Best Beach in the Caribbean: Caracas Beach, Vieques Island, Puerto Rico by jenjenk on April 24, 2013 Follow my blog with BloglovinI will admit that I m not much of a beach-goer, mostly because I hate being hot and am a bit sun-shy [as noted by my extremely pale legs]. Vieques Island, just off the coast of Puerto Rico was most notable as a former bombing range of the US Navy. It s hard to imagine that it possesses some of the most beautiful beaches I ve ever seen. When I first went to Caracas Beach [Red Beach] and Bahia de la Chiva [Blue Beach], I was absolutely stunned and in awe. The clear, crisp colors of the beach was amazing clear blue waters and endless powdery white sand as far as my eye could see [but I m nearsighted].This was one beach where I could sit all day long reading a book, sipping a glass of wine and just enjoy the view.  You know, the view of the back of my eyelids as the gentle waves hypnotically lull me to sleep. There are no facilities at this beach making it inconvenient for parents who are trying to potty train their kids but for adults who want to have some time away from their every day lives, this is the perfect respite.In order to achieve your own personal Nirvana, you will need a few things:Beach towel or chairumbrella if you need some shade [there are coconut trees but you risk the chance of having a coconut fall on your head, thus ruining your perfect outing]a cooler stuffed with ice cold drinks water, soda, beer wine. Actually, you might need two coolers.a good booklunch and snacksA note about lunch: if you go on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday, I highly recommend a stop at Sol Food Truck at the entrance of the road to the beaches. The sandwiches that they prepare are absolutely amazing. I had the Caribbean Pulled Pork sandwich topped with a homemade Purple Psychedelic Coleslaw.  Items on the menu range in price from around $8 $10.Most importantly, choose to spend your day at Caracas Beach without any of the tethers that demand your attention cellphone, email, or stress. Leave them behind and enjoy your time there.How to get there:By car: you can rent a car and drive to PR 997, the turn off is at the entrance to Garcia GateBy taxi: you can pre-arrange a pick up time as cell service can be spotty.

Being trapped in building when I could be out running around town doesn t excite me. Barcelona provided art in the form of parks buildings created by Antonio Gaudi throughout the city just what I was looking for! However, when I first saw some of [ ]Read the full article →Puerto Rico: PiñonesMarch 10, 2013 The measurement of distance is subjective.  I learned this on my quest to find Piñones in Puerto Rico last summer. I had finished my work for the day and had a few hours of free time to discover for myself if Piñones, off highway 187 just outside of San Juan, was really the fried paradise [ ]Read the full article →Paris: MarketsFebruary 17, 2013 While Paris markets are a novelty to me, it s a part of every day life for these lucky residents! Paris was where I discovered how to feast like a king for very little money in the style that I love Picnic style!  In spite of the fact that we had just enjoyed a breakfast [ ]Read the full article →Maui: Fairmont Kea LaniFebruary 13, 2013 Last November was my 3rd trip to the Fairmont Kea Lani.  My first 2 trips were so busy I didn t have time to enjoy the property and all that it offered.  I was determined to change that and be completely pampered by the uber attentive staff. The one thing that I love about this hotel [ ]Read the full article →Turkish Street Candy: Turkish TaffyFebruary 10, 2013 The number one question I get all the time is, What s your favorite destination? It s a difficult question to answer since there are so many places that I love and would love to revisit, each one being so unique and special. At the top 5, Turkey has a strong foothold in my heart for the [ ]
