Vieques.


Have they cleaned up the mess from all the bombing?


Huh?

Parts of Vieques were used as a US Navy bombing range until 2003.
None of that is visible along the south shore beaches, towns and coves

We are anchored tonight along the eastern edge of Ensenada Sun Bay,
sout east of Puerto Real. The bay is very scenic and has a terrific
beach.
