Puerto Rico 4: Hidden Bunkers & Black-Sand Beaches in Vieques

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Travel Along with Laura, we’re continuing our adventure on the Puerto Rican island of Vieques. From serene black-sand beaches to unexpected jungle detours, this trip has it all. Join Laura and her partner Carrie as they explore Playa Negra and Playa Grande, trek through island trails, search for old sugar mill ruins, and get more adventure than they bargained for while stumbling across abandoned U.S. Navy bunkers hidden in the forest. Plus, we’ll talk about the “wild” horses of Vieques, visit a local rum distillery, and reflect on the beauty — and complexity — of this Caribbean gem. If you're into off-the-beaten-path adventure, tropical beaches, and a little travel drama, this episode is for you! Listen now and come explore Vieques with us — bugs, bunkers, beaches, and all. Musical Credits: Track: "Yguacu Blues" and  "Rum And Spice"  provided by https://slipstreammusic.comSupport the showWant to support the podcast?
