In-Depth Information
El Batey
BAR
Not a large place, but seemingly big enough to accommodate the majority of Culebra's
population at weekends, when locals swing by to shake a leg to reggaetón with a bit of salsa
and merengue mixed in. During the week the place is esteemed for its cheap burgers, cold
beers and pool table.
Mamacita's
BAR
Mamacita's has a lively happy hour and after-dinner scene. On weekends, locals, expats
and yacht crews favor this place, with its open-air deck and Friday-night DJ. Mamacita's
really smokes when
bomba y plena
drummers show up to rock the patio every Saturday
night with
bomba
rhythms, as well as salsa and merengue. Everybody dances!
Dinghy Dock
BAR
The 'dock' has karaoke on Thursdays - aarghhhh!

generally used here. Basic island maps are handed out by hotels and car-rental agencies.
All of the services listed here are in Dewey.
Dangers & Annoyances
Culebra breeds swarms of mosquitoes, especially during the rainy season (May to Novem-
ber). Some of the daytime species have been known to carry dengue.
