My last trip to Puerto Rico with the Navy, I went to an out of the way island named Culebra. It has no fresh water source and horseshoe bays all around the island - result is perfectly clear water. the best I have seen anywhere. I have never taken the scuba training, so I settle for snorkling, but the views there are tremendous, minimal people (it isn't a tourist attraction), and they have 4 (I believe) species of turtles, 2 (again my memory only!) that actually breed there. BEEEautiful. The first one I saw I followed for a good 200 yards - nothing better, IMO.
Guess I have to take dive lessons sometime - maybe when I get tired of golf!
