Flora of Isla de Vieques, Puerto Rico
Vieques is very green and lush all around. Beautiful hillsides embraced by fragant fruit trees such as mango and bananas and a coastline beautifully landscaped by nature with tall coconut palm trees that dance to the wind.
El Flamboyan is one of the most beloved trees in Puerto Rico and you can see it almost everywhere in Puerto Rico (the main island) and around Vieques. It is truly a beautiful sight when in full bloom.

Breathtaking hillsides hugged by lush green flora.

Blues and greens form a postcard perfect image and their
voices come together to make a melody as the blue ocean waves go back and forth
and the palm trees dance with the wind.

The Mangroves at Laguna Kiani which is located on the way to
Green Beach.

Yummy banana trees abound throughout the island.

As you can see from the photo above, no tall buildings or
crowded hillsides. When you come to Vieques you will have a chance to appreciate
and enjoy the Caribbean the way nature intended it to be. But hurry, it may not
stay this way for long as tourists from all over the world are learning of this
beautiful sleepy island.

Bright flowers decorate roads and find their way through
fences trying to climb up to touch the sunny blue skies.

We hope you have enjoyed this little taste of my island, my
beautiful Isla Nena. (Isla de Vieques)
