Astronomical tourism is growing in Vieques. The island is small and two-thirds have been designated as a nature reserve. Light pollution is low making Vieques perfect for those that love stargazing. If you are quiet and listen, as the stars twinkle the coquis create the perfect background music to the show in the sky. After a fun day at the beach, sit on a comfortable lounge chair, and simply sit back and enjoy the show.
