Circumnavigating Culebra

In anticipation of our daughter Robin and her husband Matt's arrival over March break, we decided to circumnavigate Culebra and check out the points of interest.
Our tour was in a counter clock-wise direction. Our first night's anchorage was on Culebra's southeast corner behind tiny Pela Island in Bahia Almodovar. The blue/green colour of the water was gorgeous. We did some snorkelling, shell collecting and exploring in this very pretty location.
While snorkelling Barry discovered 4 shark sucker remoras (3' long) stuck to our hull. We wondered where their sharks had gone or if they were perhaps nearby. Enough snorkelling for one day.
We spent a quiet night secured behind the expansive reef as we viewed the lights of St. Thomas in the distance.
