Hi Nancy, you can arrive at Vieques by boat or by airplane. Both of them leave from Fajardo “1 hour east of San Juan” you need to arrive there by car. The boat cost like 3$ per person “very economic”, buy the trip takes like 2 hours and not to mention the row you have to make to buy the tickets, you can not buy the tickets online. By airplane cost like 65$ per person, but you get a trip of 15-20 min and an excellent view with out headaches.
