Don't kid yourself about your need for sun block, I tan easily and I still got burned wearing SPF 30. One day I forgot sunblock on only one leg and it wasn't pretty. Wear double what you normally think you need in the states, mexico or hawaii. The sun is fierce in vieques and you don't even feel it.

This is just a small sample of the amount of mosquito bites my friend and I ended up with. After just one short day we were both covered. It certainly did not ruin our visit, but plan ahead. Stay away from the scented lotion, perfume, and hairspray....load up on the bug repellent!

not so friendly locals?

Day 5- Lee found a huge centipede over the kitchen sink in our villa, he came to the pool and asked me if I’d noticed a centipede magnet or decoration in the kitchen first though. Ewwwww! He put a glass over it and slid a piece of paper under it and dumped it over the wall by the pool, hoping it doesn’t come back! Bill (our care taker) says they will bite you and it is very painful, plus they are fast so it’s best to use tongs to pick them up... or run like hell.

Groups of wild horses are all over the island. Use caution when driving! When they see lunch on the other side of the road...that's where they head.
